Next Saturday, April 30th, is one of my favorite annual foodie events – BrüFrou. Held in the Wings over Rockies museum, BrüFrou is now in its 3rd year. Talented CO chefs and brewmasters present collaborative pairings as well as educational talks throughout the evening.
I went to BrüFrou in its first year and it was hands-down my favorite foodie event of that year. I spent a significant amount of time laying under the historic planes of the museum, attempting to recover enough to keep eating more of the amazing food presented. Last year, the price jumped a lot while the pairing count was slightly down, so I was slightly disappointed during the event itself, but it was still one of my event highlights of the 2015. I also really enjoyed last year’s experiment with adding educational talks before the main event.
The 2016 event is changing it up yet again, likely in response to price critiques, by presenting you the option to pay for how much time you’d like to attend the event. At this point, the lowest pairing prices of 2hr $45/$65 & 3hr $50/$75 are sold out, however tickets remain for the 4hr session ($55/$85; dining-only/beer+dining) and the full 5hr session ($60/$95) which also get you access to 3 or 4 educational talks respectively.
