Monument Beer Week 2011: Oct 16 - 22

That's right, Monument now has a Beer Week! I'd imagine it's largely due to the work of our new Pikes Peak Brewing, as everything looks like it's happening there. I'm not sure if other places in Monument will also be participating. Check out the calendar of events:

Sunday - 10/16
Homebrewers Demonstration mid afternoon

Monday - 10/17

Beer Chef contest, bring your best beer-inspired recipe for a chance to win fabulous PPBC prizes! If you'd like to participate, contact Courtney at courtney@pikespeakbrewing.com for details.

Also, we noticed this last night conflicts with our new date for our Crooked Stave Meet the Brewer Event. We won't be able to attend both, however, A Second Cup and Pikes Peak Brewing are close enough to make it really easy to hit our event at 6pm on the way up to Monument.
