The 3rd Annual BrüFrou (pronounced broo-froo) is Colorado’s premier craft beer and culinary pairing event that celebrates Colorado’s renowned craft beer and culinary reputation. BrüFrou is not your ordinary beer event — the one-day tasting event for 3,000 foodies will transform a WWII-era airplane hangar into a craft beer and culinary pairing event, bringing together Colorado culinary luminaries and Colorado craft brewers. The result? 80 Colorado brewers & chefs will present over 50 unique pairings to be enjoyed by guests.
