Celebrate Oktoberfest Season With Lone Tree Brewing Lagers
Oktoberfest season will tap at Lone Tree Brewing on August 7 when the brewery releases their traditional Oktoberfest in cans. They’ll bring back their classic Helles recipe in the tasting rooms at their Oktoberfest celebrations in September.
COLORADO— Oktoberfest season will tap at Lone Tree Brewing on August 7 when the brewery releases their traditional Oktoberfest in cans. They’ll bring back their classic Helles recipe in the tasting rooms at their Oktoberfest celebrations in September.
Crafted with traditional European malts and German Hallertau Mittelfruh hops, the amber-hued Lone Tree Oktoberfest is a 5.5% ABV lager with rich, toasty and bready flavors, minimal bitterness, and a dry finish. Find it on tap and in canned 12oz. 6-packs at both of the brewery tasting rooms in Lone Tree and Parker, and distributed across Colorado by Elite Brands— all while supplies last.
Lone Tree Helles, originally named Mountain Mama Helles, will return for German-style lager season exclusively at Lone Tree Brewing Main near Park Meadows Mall and at Lone Tree Brewing Parker. Similar to Oktoberfest, the selected malts showcase all the foundational German attributes from Weyermann’s heirloom varieties. The Lone Tree brewers chose to ferment the Helles with another iconic yeast strain to mimic the traditional Augustiner flavor profiles, leaving the drinker with a rich, malty-sweet experience. It will be on draft alongside Oktoberfest at each of the taprooms Oktoberfest celebrations, slated for September 5 (Parker) and September 12 (Lone Tree), and available in limited 6-packs to-go.
“We rarely get to make Helles anymore, and we have always loved this style,” says Jerry Siote, Lone Tree Brewing Director of Operations. “The new label provides a refreshed look that fits in perfectly with our flagship and seasonal lineups, while reminding our drinkers of a classic lager that opened the doors for us 15 years ago — look for it in our mixed packs this season.”

Oktoberfest Season Taps At Ska Brewing
The award-winning Ska Brewing Oktoberfest will be available across the brewery’s distribution footprint out west while supplies last.
DURANGO, CO— Oktoberfest season begins this Fresh Beer Friday at Ska Brewing’s World Headquarters when the Ska Oktoberfest taps and rolls out in cans. This award-winning lager will be available across the brewery’s distribution footprint out west while supplies last.
Back in 2018 when Ska first debuted their Oktoberfest in cans, the beer scored a gold medal at the Great American Beer Festival® in the Vienna-style Lager category. It has since earned awards at the European Beer Star and The Stockholm Beer and Whiskey Festival. Crafted with all-European Munich and Vienna malts and classic German lagering techniques, this amber-brown hued lager is nutty, bready, and toasty with a clean, neutral yeast flavor on the finish.
“We realize releasing an Oktoberfest while it’s still 105 degrees outside is a little like putting up Christmas lights before Halloween,” said Ska Brewing Co-Founder Dave Thibodeau. “But the beer is ready, fall will get here eventually, and patience is only our virtue until the lagering is done.”
Get this lager on tap at Ska Brewing in Durango beginning this Friday at 11am. The brewery will offer up German-inspired eats that day, and guests can score a specialty stein made for the occasion. It will be on tap from there on out, but only while supplies last.
Ska is also excited to serve their Oktoberfest at Durango’s resurrected Oktoberfest celebration from September 26-27, as well as Oktoberfest Cortez and Montrose Oktoberfest— also on September 26.
