As we transition into November it’s natural to begin shifting from bright berliners and pilsners to their more roasty, boozier brethren. No better event helps to kick off that changing of the guard, than Wynkoop Brewing’s Annual Day of Darks Festival.

Join Wynkoop Brewing Company as they celebrate the season of dark beers with the Day of the Darks Festival on Saturday, November 17, with participating breweries from all over the state of Colorado, all for a good cause!

A portion of ticket proceeds from Day of the Darks will be donated to local charities including Movember, Beer for Boobs (founded by the folks at White Labs), and the Colorado Cancer Institute. Tickets include a commemorative glass for sampling unlimited dark beers and there is also chocolates to accompany your beer tasting! There will also be a build your own mustache station and contest with winners in “Best Real Mustache” and “Most Creative Mustache”, the judging will begin at 3:00pm, so be sure to get there early!
