On Saturday, February 26, the second annual Bigfork Brewfest will take place on Electric Avenue in downtown Bigfork. Eddy Grant CDs sold separately. An outdoor brewfest…
Hold a brewfest in Missoula and you’re sure of one thing: big crowds of beer lovers. Such was the case last Saturday at the Missoula Downtown Association’s Winter BrewFest, a fundraiser for Caras Park. Thousands turned out at the old Macy’s building to taste some of the 30 beers and listen to great music on…
Missoulians love their beer and turn out by the thousands for annual brewfests in May and September. Now there’s a rare opportunity to take part in an indoor brewfest in the middle of winter. Thanks to a partnership between the new owners of the former Macy’s building, Octagon Capital Partners, and the Missoula Downtown Association, …
The wonderful summer season in Missoula is book-ended by two fine brewfests. Signaling the start of fall (though the weather has already done that) is the 12th Annual Maverick Brewfest at Caras Park on Friday, September 10, 2010 from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. There will be more than 40 beers on tap along with…

Think of it this way. The lines will likely be shorter than last year when the sun was bright enough to burn…
Judging by the crowds each year at the annual Garden City Brewfest, this event is anticipated almost as much as spring itself. The 2010 Garden City Brewfest will be on Saturday, May 1, 2010 from noon to 8:00 p.m. at Caras Park in downtown Missoula. It typically brings in around 60 beers along with plenty…
Good weather, a good crowd and good beer combined to create quite a success for the inaugural Bigfork Brewfest on Saturday. Perhaps a bit too successful. Brewers were left scrambling for more kegs when a larger than expected crowd fully drained some offerings in the first hour. Yet, the hundreds in attendance didn’t seem to…
