Mountain Brewers Beerfest

We are rockin it at the annual pigrimage we do every year to Idaho's Mountain Brewers Beerfest. This is always a blast. Year after year this is one of the best beer festivals in the Rocky Mountains. Thank for all the great times and the two medals we took home for our Viennese Lager and our Altus Altbier.

Brewers Don't Go To Beer Festival

SALT LAKE CITY—Some Western beer brewers avoided a beer festival this weekend because state liquor laws would have required them to water down their lagers and ales.

There were 60 different beers on tap from 20 different breweries Saturday at the annual Gallivan Center's Brewers Festival in Salt Lake City. Some of them were from out of state.

But Eric Dunlap, brewing manager for Red Rock Brewing Co. in Salt Lake City, said there are a lot of breweries that did not show up, because they do not make beer with 3.2 percent alcohol—Utah's legal limit.

"We're missing a lot of great breweries. There are a lot that specialize in styles that aren't here," Dunlap said.
