4th Annual Human Powered Brewery Tour

It is the 4th Annual



Human Powered



Brewery Tour!



Now that you're four it's time to put your "Big Boy" Pants on!
 








When:                                           
Saturday, February 5th 2011

Why:                                             
This is the 4th annual event


What Time:                                  
10:15 am from Scott and Celeste’s House 1015 W Oak St.
11 am at New Belgium Brewery

OMG What Should I wear?        

Costumes are encouraged!












How Did I get Here?               
By any human powered means i.e.  
Run, Bike, walk, ski, skate, swim

Where/Route:                         
Start at New Belgium,
Out to Funkworks 
(walkers may want to skip this one), 
Right to Equinox,
Finally to Coopersmiths Pub!

Details:    

We are particularly excited that there are two new breweries on the tour this year, Funkwerks, and Equinox!  Funkwerks moved into the old Fort Collins brewery location when F.C.B. moved to the corner of Lemay and Lincoln.  Equinox is located 1/2 block south of Coopersmith's.

At any rate, the standard way to tour is to enjoy a pint or a sampler tray at each brewery on the tour route!

We typically have a mix of runners, bikers, and walkers, and everyone travels at different speeds.  It is difficult to execute the tour "en masse", so feel free to go at your own pace!  This is not a race, we encourage you all to enjoy what the breweries have to offer, hang out with your fellow participants, and make some new friends along the way!

We also like to encourage all participants to make
a small tax deductible donation to ALS;

Also we will pass the hat around for cash and check donations at the event!

We've had fantastic weather for the first three HPBT's but make sure you check the weather forecast and plan accordingly!

One final note; it's a long day out there, we encourage you to being snacks!  Pretzel necklaces and Little Debbie's oatmeal pies are the official Human Powered Brewery Tour snacks.

3rd Annual Human Powered Brewery Tour!




3rd Annual
Human Powered Brewery Tour

When: Feb 6th 2010, 11:00 am, New Belgium Brewery

(As always, the day before the Super Bowl)

Help us figure out what happened at last year’s Human Powered Brewery Tour! We can’t remember a thing! Remember?



We started out at New Belgium Brewery at 11:00 am. We’re pretty sure one of us made a toast to the “wolf pack.”


Then I think we stole a shopping cart and took it to Fort Collins Brewery??



Then I think we stole a tiger from a boxer, and took it to Odell Brewery,

and finally we ended up at Coopersmith’s Brewing Pub where apparently we ate sofa pizza.



What happened exactly? We may never know, but we’re going to do it again this year!

Come join us for the 3rd annual Human Powered Brewery Tour,

February 6th, 2010, at 11:00 amat New Belgium. We will retrace our steps using human-powered transport only! Bikes, Foot, Shopping Cart, Roller Blades, Tiger, Skis, etc., etc. NO cars!



Please bring a donation for the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the ALS foundation, or you can donate on-line here:

Oh and no stealing of cop cars or marrying of exotic dancers this time!
