Get ready for an unforgettable day of craft beer, live music and high-energy entertainment — all for a great cause.
Brews for Rescues is returning to the Archuleta County Fairgrounds, bringing together more than 40 beers from some of the region’s best breweries to support Rugby’s Rescue House, a local dog rescue dedicated to giving pups a second chance at a happy home.
Brews for Rescues will be from noon to 5 p.m. on April 26 at the Archuleta County Fairgrounds. Admission, which includes unlimited beer tastings, is $25 online or $35 at the door.
There will be live music by A-Mac and The Height, offering Denver based genre-blending fusion of reggae, hip-hop, funk and alternative rock with powerful, hook-driven songwriting. Check out their music at https://amacandtheheight.com/.
There will also be food trucks with local flavors to keep you fueled for the fun.
Proceeds benefit Rugby’s Rescue House.
New this year will be the Brewfest Brawls — live armored combat.
Brewfest Brawls will kick off at 1 p.m. on the fairgrounds campus. This full-contact, medieval-inspired combat sport features warriors in historically inspired armor battling it out with blunted weapons in duels, team fights and epic melees.
It’s a one-of-a-kind spectacle that will make this spring kickoff event even more legendary.
So, whether you’re coming for the beer, the beats or the battles, there’s something for everyone at Brews for Rescues. Don’t miss out — get your tickets now at brewsforrescues2025.eventbrite.com before they’re gone.
