From Left Hand:

---

On Sunday, September 21st, your favorite brewery turns 15. That's right, 15! And fifteen years to the day, to be exact. Back in 1993, on that fateful day, former Air Force Academy grads Eric Wallace and Dick Doore signed documents that would incorporate Indian Peaks Brewing Company, otherwise known to the outside world as Left Hand Brewing Company. And we would not be here without your support over the past decade and a half, so we're throwing a celebration that lasts all day, and your presence is officially required!
We'll have live music, brewery games, great local food, and, of course, great beer! Not to mention five great local non-profits that will benefit from beer sales that day. What, drink beer for a great cause? Come on, what's better than that? Oh, and bring cash for the day - we won't be accepting any plastic!
Below is a quick run-down on the day - we hope to see you here!

Also, for you out-of-towners that want a place to stay? Well, we've shored that up for you as well - a discounted rate at the local SpringHill Suites, Residence Inn or Courtyard puts you about 2 miles away from the brewery. And they've even given you discounted rates for the weekend - just visit www.marriott.com/vbori and use LHBLHBA as your booking code to get the discounted rate. Sure, you could always stay somewhere else, but why would you? You won't find better hotel options in all of Longmont. Not to mention that we will be running a FREE shuttle between those three hotels and the brewery that day. Trust us - if you've been to Longmont before and tried to get a cab, you'd appreciate this a lot more.
