Spring Rendezvous Brewfest: Here for Beer
On Saturday, May 10, the Montana Brewers Association will host the Montana Brewers Spring Rendezvous Brewfest at the Haynes Pavilion in Bozeman. Breweries from across the state will gather to showcase their craft beer. What better way to celebrate the warmer temperatures of the spring than with an ice cold, refreshing, locally brewed beer? In addition to the beverages, there will be delicious food from local food trucks and live music by Montana artists. VIP hour is from 3 – 4 p.m. followed by General Admission from 4 – 8 p.m.
The 2025 Rendezvous Brewfest tour kicks off in Bozeman, travels to Helena, and concludes in Missoula for a three-stop celebration of local beer. The theme of this year’s tour, “Here for Beer,” symbolizes the role Montana-brewed beers in creating connections across the state. Thousands of craft beer lovers come to the MBA’s Brewfests for the beer, and the thriving beer scene in the state draws visitors to sample the fresh, quality, and distinctive brews that make Montana craft brewers world-class.
Come here for the beer, to share in the camaraderie with brewers and to celebrate all things local. Festival goers can enjoy tasty bites from five Montana food trucks: CC Gourmet, Follow Yer’ Nose BBQ, Mo’Bowls, Ms. Sippi’s Southern Cuisine, and Rancho Picante Bison Burgers. For the VIP hour, the Bozeman-based Lazy Owl String Band will deliver stomping, fast picking, old-timey string music with a high-energy show that will get everyone moving. Playing for General Admission, Matt Wallin and His Nervous Breakdown will blend rock and roll, country, blues, and those heartstrings for a show that is not to be missed.
The Montana Brewers Spring Rendezvous has become a much-anticipated annual event for Bozeman and surrounding areas to come together and celebrate local beer – beer lovers won’t want to miss it. But mark your calendars for the Summer Brewfest in Helena Aug. 2 and Fall Brewfest in Missoula on Sept. 6.
The Spring Rendezvous Brewfest is a fundraiser for the Montana Brewers Association to continue to support the mission of protecting and strengthening a diverse and independent Montana craft brewing industry and facilitating cooperation and unity between all Montana brewers.
