Colorado is quickly becoming know for Craft Beers. There are almost too many breweries. I just visited a new one yesterday. But We’ve also discovered another Beer Festival: Hops and Handrails:
Over 65 Breweries and impossible to ample them all. But we did our best. Just a few of our favorites:
I particularly liked the Periodic Brewing (Pb) reference for the town of Leadville. And it was nice to see breweries from the midwest represented.
The Handrails consisted of a Stunt Skiing Event. Somewhat hampered by the warm weather, they trucked in snow from the mountains and gave it a real good try:
But the Harleys won fro the Best Ride:
Best of all we won Free Beer for a Year from the Host, Left Hand Brewery:
Free Beer consists of a Growler per month.

We wanted a quick turn around.

mmmm craft beer and film, a solid combo.

Only one problem. Photos can get fuzzy focussed once you’ve had a few beers!

That’s what Autofocus and AE modes are for 😉

And the auto focus and exposure worked perfectly. I had more pics, but most weren’t that interesting. Beer may have affected my compositions; and people were very mellow and not doing much.

It is amazing! But there are too many breweries here. You just have to pick a few favorites and stick with them. We will definitely become familiar with Left Hand, since they are giving us beer!
