From the CEO POINTS TO PONDER

Now entering its third decade, Lander Brewfest has become one of the premier independent craft brew festivals in the Rocky Mountain West.

More than 30 Brewers from 6 States!

Lander Brewfest will welcome more than 30 brewers -- including two winners from World Beer Cup 2023 -- who’ll be pouring more than 80 beers. Hailing primarily from Wyoming, brewers also will be traveling to Lander from Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, and South Dakota. Two cideries also will be joining us from Jackson and Bozeman. We aim to provide quality and quantity!

Delicious Food from Popular Wyoming Food Trucks!

We make a point of seeking out excellent vendors who will serve up food worthy of excellent beer. Once again we’re featuring Riverton’s Bunk’s BBQ and Mima’s Texas Style Brisket Tacos from Saratoga. Joining them will be Gary’s Rojo o Verde, also from Riverton, and the Wing It Food Truck from Thermopolis. The Lander Kiwanis will be serving up traditional burgers and hot dogs.

Showcasing Wyoming Music!

Featured on the recently released WyoFolk Project, Friday evening performers Inland Isle is a folk-rock band from Jackson whose songs are anchored by accessible hooks and introspective lyrics atop lush vocal harmonies. On Saturday, Red Dangit will play an eclectic blend of jazz, blues, and rock with a psychedelic edge. Composed of musicians from Northern Colorado and Wyoming, the band’s Quinn Cerovski hails from Lander and is the son of Stuart Cerovski, guitarist of Lander’s Low Water String Band.

Golf with the Brewers 9-Hole Scramble

Love beer? Love the brewers who brew the beer you love? Love golf? Then grab your sticks and some friends and join the brewers on the morning of Brewfest Saturday for a personal, casual, and crowdfree experience. Get your foursome signed up for a great time!

THANK YOU, Sponsors!

Without the enthusiastic and generous support of our sponsors, none of the above would be possible. We thank first and foremost our loyal Presenting Sponsor Fremont Toyota. Many thanks also to Platinum Sponsor Wind River Hotel and Casino; Gold Sponsors Holiday Inn Express & Suites, Hampton Inn & Suites Riverton, County 10, and Shoshone Rose Casino & Hotel; and Silver Sponsors Rocky Mountain Power and Wind River Power Sports.
