Grinnell-on-the-Front Range:
Fort Collins Brewery Crawl
Join Jake Joseph '11 and your Grinnell-on-the-Front Range community for an afternoon of visiting Fort Collins breweries! With around 30 breweries in Fort Collins alone, it would take us years to cover them all. Nonetheless, we are excited to be organizing a tour for the third year in a row with an entirely different itinerary. This year, we will visit Funkwerks Brewery, Horse and Dragon Brewery, and Red Truck Beer Company. Join us for as long as you'd like, or come and go as you're able throughout the day! Look for the Grinnell shirts and signs to find our group.
