Grand Valley Brew runs brings together what runners and athletes of all shapes, sizes, ages and levels love: Beer and running!
This series of social fun runs from some of the best breweries and tap houses in the west! Our runs include free brews, swag and after party with our famous Beer Olympics games!
Every brew run includes a free craft beer or non alcoholic beverage, and a custom pint glass or water bottle and optional swag at certain races. Entry does not include a t-shirt. Please see each individual brew run event page to see what that particular brew run includes.
We partner with local and meaningful charities. Check the specific run to see what charity we support for the run
Yep. The venues have full menus and we bring out cider or hot chocolate as well as water to every event.
Of course! We welcome and encourage runners and walkers of all ages and fitness levels to join in on the fun. There will also be water and non-alcoholic beverages for those not of age who wish to participate with friends and family members. Have fun!
The run is just the start of the fun! Beer Olympics are a series of Olympic inspired games that involve athleticism, beer drinking and a little bit of silliness.
Challenges this year include:
Keg Haul relay
Beer Balance relay
Squat challenge
Triple jump competition
Flanking
Make sure you sign up for these games when you arrive, spots go fast!
Just another fun addition to Brew runs: at select events we will have not one but two water filled growlers ready for one lucky runner to carry. If they can finish the 5k-ish course in under 25 minutes without dropping, spilling or transferring the growlers to someone else they win a growler filled with a beer of their choice!
No, we don’t! You can of course transfer your entry to someone else. Reach and type “transfer” in the subject.
We are instituting a strict weather cancellation policy. If it is looking like conditions will make either the drive or event itself unsafe for participants (blizzard or lightning) we will do a Facebook post and send an email out to all registered participants at 6pm the evening before the scheduled run. Please make sure to check either or both of these if you are unsure if the run will be held or rescheduled.
We DO NOT offer refunds if you decide you don’t want to come out due to the weather. This is COLORADO people, toughen up! If we can make it out to set up the course then you can make it out to run it. If a run is cancelled due to inclement weather we will do our best to either reschedule within a timely period or refund your entry.
