Join us in celebration of 17 years of boundary pushing brews on the first Sunday in August at our brewery in Boulder. We'll be tapping dozens of different Avery brews, roasting pigs (veggie options too) for an all-you-can eat BBQ, and kicking back to enjoy some tunes and the summer sunshine. We've enlisted the help of StrayGrass, The Mike Woodard Band and several other bands to help set the mood for the day. Bring your dancing shoes and don't miss this annual summer rite of passage!

An additional $20 ($40 total) will gain you admission to the Rare Beer Tasting Area (5, 5oz tasting tickets per person) inside the Avery Barrel-Aging Cellars, where you'll have the opportunity to choose samples from a selection of 14 rare and wild brews on tap. We'll have aged beers from our Demons of Ale series, multiple selections from our Barrel-Aged Series and several more exceedingly rare treats. For those Avery Anniversary Party vets, the Rare Beer Tasting Area is meant to replace the Vertical Tasting that we've done in past years.

All proceeds from the Avery Anniversary Party and the Rare Beer Tasting will go to help our friend Mara Brightstar and her couragous fight against cancer.

Description: 
Yes, Great Divide is releasing two brand new seasonal beers this summer.

Rumble IPA is an American IPA with subtle nuance. Brewed with heavy handed additions of Pacific Northwest hops, this beer is gently aged on French and American oak resulting in a wonderful balance of bitterness, caramel sweetness, vanilla, and undertones of pine and citrus. Very inspiring. 7.1% ABV. Available in six packs and on draft.

Smoked Baltic Porter is the sultry sister of a storied style. Brewed with traditional German malts and hops, this dark lager gets its special twist from a hefty addition of Bamberg smoked malt. This smoldering, medium-bodied lager is sure to please. Smoked Baltic Porter is smooth, smoky and dark...mysterious enough yet? 6.2% ABV. Available in 22oz bottles and on draft.

Come celebrate the release of these tasty treats Friday August 6th from 6-9pm in the brewhouse. $15 admission includes 4 drink tickets and 2 food tickets.

Description: Instructor Charlie Papazian is looking forward to returning to the Whitehead Light Station in 2010 for a reprise of his very popular 2009 course, The Art and Science of Beer. Charlie will discuss beer and brewing and his own remarkable journey, teach program participants about brewing beer, tasting beer, cooking with beer, the history of beer, and simply enjoying beer. The five-night, six-day course (four full days on the island with days one and six being arrival and departure days) will include demonstrations, lectures, informal socializing, great meals, a huge variety of beers, a journey to nearby Belfast to visit two brew pubs, and, as is true for all Whitehead Light Station courses, plenty of time to relax, read, and enjoy being unplugged and unhurried. Most organized activities will be in the mornings or around dinnertime. You do not have to be a devoted homebrewer to enjoy the course. There will be a maximum of 12 course participants.

Tuition: $800.
Food & Lodging: $1,000 (single occupancy) $600 (double occupancy), plus Maine lodging tax.
