COLORADO SYMPHONY ANNOUNCES TWO BEETHOVEN AND BREWS EVENTS FOR SPRING 2019
Epic Brewing Co. in Denver and Left Hand Brewing Co. in Longmont to play host to fundraiser event
Jan. 11, 2019 – Denver, CO – The Colorado Symphony announces the next two installments of their Beethoven and Brews series at Epic Brewing Co. on March 21 at 6:30 p.m. and Left Hand Brewing Co. on May 15 at 6:30 p.m.
A fan favorite since debuting in 2015, the Beethoven and Brews series pairs delicious beer with great music for an unforgettable and homegrown front-range experience. This will be the second Beethoven and Brews event at each venue.
“The Colorado Symphony is delighted to return to each of these breweries,” stated Anthony Pierce, Chief Artistic Officer for the Colorado Symphony, “The musicians really enjoy smaller ensemble performances in these unique places. A brewery makes for pretty remarkable acoustics, and libations right at hand certainly add a festive element, too!”
Tickets for the event will include two pints of beer from each brewery’s extensive tap listing, light hors d’oeuvres, and a unique performance by Colorado Symphony musicians. Additional beverages will be available for purchase.
VIP tickets will also be available and will include an additional, exclusive taster, a behind-the-scenes brewery tour, priority seating at the event, custom brewery glassware, and a Colorado Symphony ticket voucher to be redeemed for 2018/19 Boettcher Concert Hall events ticketed by the Colorado Symphony.
The festivities kick off at 6:30 p.m. All seating will be general admission with limited priority seating for VIP ticket holders.

ABOUT EPIC BREWING CO.
Founded in Salt Lake City, Utah, Epic expanded its brewery operations in 2013 into Colorado by opening a second brewery in the River North district of downtown Denver. The Denver brewery offered enough space to support growing national distribution, expansion of the popular barrel aged beer program and the introduction of a line of sour beers. Along with these improvements the addition of a “proper” tap room featuring 25 taps was a long awaited realization, allowing Epic to feature its substantial beer selection on draught. Despite the rapid expansion and increase in production volume Epic Brewing has stayed committed to its founding principal of small batch, artisanal beer. Every batch released in the Elevated and Exponential series is numbered, stamped, and release information is published online. Currently brewing 39 plus beers Epic believes there is a beer for every person and every occasion.
