GABF is considered to be the most prestigious and coveted beer competition in America. It is certainly the world's largest beer celebration, with a Guinness World Record for the most beers ever made available for tasting at a single event, and this year officials estimate that during the 2013 GABF, an astonishing 3,000 different beers will be available from 600 breweries.

But GABF is just the tip of the beer iceberg that month in Denver – a city that brews more beer than any other. From October 4-12, the citywide suds celebration known as Denver Beer Fest, returns for its fifth year with more than 150 events, including Meet the Brewer Nights, an Oktoberfest celebration in lower downtown, beer-paired dinners, firkin nights, brewer versus brewer competitions and a whole lot more. If you love – or even just like – beer, Denver is the place to be this October. All events are listed at DenverBeerFest.com.

Were you one of the lucky ones, and already have your GABF tickets but still need a place to stay? Go to denverbeerfest.com/hoteldeals to find special rates and packages timed to the Denver Beer Fest.
