    Denver Rare Beer Tasting V Tickets Go On Sale June 16

    Denver, Colo. – The Denver Rare Beer Tasting V, an awareness event and fundraiser for the Pints for Prostates campaign, will be held on Oct. 11 from 1-4 p.m. in Denver.

    Tickets for the event go on sale on Father’s Day, June 16, at Noon (ET) and are $100 each. Admission includes the chance to sample rare, exotic and vintage beers from more than 30 of America’s top craft breweries and the opportunity to meet the men and women who made them.

    Each attendee receives a commemorative tasting glass, t-shirt, program and pen. Guests also receive a three issue trial subscription to the award-winning All About Beer Magazine. A buffet lunch is included in the ticket price and guests will have the chance to bid in an exciting silent auction that includes a variety of unique beer experiences and collectibles.

    Presented by All About Beer Magazine, tickets for the event are among the most sought after of any beer tasting. The event is held while the Great American Beer Festival is taking place in Denver. The first four Denver Rare Beer Tastings each sold out several weeks in advance.

    “The Denver Rare Beer Tasting is the quintessential rare beer event and gives people in Denver for the GABF the chance to experience a true boutique-style tasting,” said Daniel Bradford, publisher of All About Beer Magazine. “Our goal is to bring together America’s best craft breweries in a relaxed format where brewers and beer lovers get the chance to talk and taste a unique collection of beers.”

    Pints for Prostates is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity founded by beer writer and prostate cancer survivor Rick Lyke. All net proceeds from Denver Rare Beer Tasting go towards the awareness mission of Pints for Prostates and help to fund the education and support programs of the Us TOO International Prostate Cancer Education and Support Network, and free prostates cancer screening programs provided by the Prostate Conditions Education Council.

    “The Denver Rare Beer Tasting has become on the most anticipated annual beer celebrations in the U.S. Beer fans get to taste a collection of beers that most people never have the chance to enjoy, while rubbing elbows with brewers,” said Lyke. “It is a fun afternoon and a great atmosphere, with a serious mission: raising awareness about prostate cancer.”

    The link to purchase tickets will be posted at www.allaboutbeer.com and www.pintsforprostates.org prior to the start of sales.

    Invitations have been extended to a small select group of breweries and event organizers hope to be able to announce the brewery list during July. Breweries bring some of their rarest brews to the event and the beer list will be released prior to the Denver Rare Beer Tasting V. Sponsorship packages are available for companies that wish to support the event.

    So many places in town have fantastic beers that whole week, I'd rather just hit those spots. That's what I did last year and I had a great time (with the Apple Brandy Hunahpu fiasco being the lone exception). Normally I wouldn't spend the $100 for any beer event (hell, I generally won't even spend $40, another reason I decided against GABF), but since it's for a good cause and all, I decided to spring for the Rare Beer event.

    Hell yeah man!



    Understood, that's reasonable. I had a great time at Cigar City's takeover at Freshcraft. I haven't been back to Falling Rock since Hunahpu, and no I didn't get any. The whole week of GABF is awesome. Rackhouse killed it last year, :slight_smile:

    Marshal Z on tap was good stuff. I don't think we went to Rackhouse last year during GABF week, I'll have to pay closer attention this year.
    Plus Rare Beer gets you a buffet, glass, TShirt and a PEN, now that's just kickass

    I don't believe they asked last year. You just went to the table and got the size you wanted.

    The IRS revoked Pints for Protates exempt status on July 15, 2012. Currently, Pints for Prostates isn't not a 501(c)(3).

    You've confused me with the "isn't not". And what does this have to do with me getting drunk?
