Great American Beer Festival (GABF) took place this weekend in Denver, CO, with 800 breweries pouring 3,800 beers at the 3-day, 4-session fest held by the national Brewers Association.

The GABF competition also took place, with eight Indiana breweries winning 10 medals at what is one of the most prestigious beer events in the world. We’re proud of our member breweries who represented Indiana at the competition and festival with some of the country’s best beers.
