The Battle Begins: October 3, 2014
Rock Bottom - Denver Downtown, 1:00 - 3:30 pm.

A Battle of the Brews
Since 1999, Hopunion, Brewing News Publications and Three Floyds Brewing Company, have been scouring the country for the best hop-laden beers in the land. Each year, a team of brewers and veteran beer writers test the vigor of each year’s hoppy findings and crown a new Alpha King, deeming his/her beer to be the holy grail of well-balanced and drinkable, yet highly-hopped ales.

While many will contend, only one will win the crown.
Alpha King is a Battle of the Brews!
