BUENA VISTA, CO— The Jailhouse Craft Beer Bar on East Main Street in Buena Vista is celebrating its first anniversary on Saturday, July 15 with a mini beer festival and live music.
Baere Brewing, Black Project Spontaneous & Wild Ales, Cerebral Brewing, Elevation Beer Company, and Melvin Brewing will be pouring during the mini beer fest from 2 - 6 p.m. Live music will start on the outdoor stage at 3 p.m. with Boulder based rock band Augustus followed up by Denver based bluegrass band The River Arkansas 6 - 8 pm.
The Jailhouse recently extended its liquor license to include the lot next door, which houses The Watershed BV – a community shared space – an outdoor stage, where all the live music will be taking place, and The Bearded Lady food truck.
The Jailhouse Craft Beer Bar will be open before, during, and after the mini beer fest with service as usual and a special selection of beers filling its 10 taps. Guests are welcome to bring their beers to the beer fest area to enjoy the music, but a wristband is required to sample beers from the beer tents. Tickets are $20 for unlimited tasting from the beer tents and access to live music. Tickets will be available for purchase at The Jailhouse leading up to the event and at the door on July 15.
The Mini Beer Fest is also a benefit for Chaffee County Search & Rescue North, who will be selling $3 Colorado Outdoor Recreation Search and Rescue (CORSAR) cards at the door— each card purchase helps to reimburse the volunteer teams for costs incurred for rescue missions. CCSAR will also host demos and classes on the hour during the festival inside The Watershed BV.
