7th Annual Great Falls Craft Beer Week

Great Falls Craft Beer Week aims to celebrate the craft beer culture in Montana. This fun filled week celebrates one of the great things that Montana is becoming well known for, wheat, barley and water, which come together to make really great craft beer. During the week participants can find unique dinner pairings that include a meal made with or matched perfectly with MT craft beers. Education sessions around beer tasting and styles, trivia nights, singo, and so much more. Towards the end of the week breweries come from around the state to come host "Tap Takeovers" at local establishments where beer enthusiasts can chat with the representatives from other breweries and sample beers that are not seen in Great Falls. To wrap up the week, the Downtown Associations hosts the Montana Brew Fest to celebrate all of the great beer made only in MT. This brew fest is a BJCP sanctioned event, meaning that the highest caliber of beer judges come to choose the best beers from around the state, and award one lucky brewery to be Brewery of the Year. There is also a "Best in Show" and a "Peoples Choice" award. This fun event features roughly 45 of the great breweries from around MT, live music and good food.
