Beers Made By Walking comes to RiNo Art District for a day celebrating beer, art, nature, and the landscapes that connect them.

Founded by artist and organizer Eric Steen, Beers Made By Walking invites brewers onto guided nature experiences and challenges them to create one-of-a-kind beers inspired by local plants, neighborhoods, history, and a true sense of place.

The beers featured at this RiNo Art District 20th Anniversary event are inspired by a guided walk through RiNo this summer. Brewers explored the district alongside botanists, historians, and local experts, learning about the area's ecology, public art, beer history, and cultural heritage.

On October 4, experience Beers Made By Walking in two formats:

1. Guided Nature Walk | 10–11:30 AM
Experience an abbreviated version of the brewers' journey during a free, all-ages guided nature walk. The walk highlights many of the stories, places, and natural features that inspired this year's participating breweries. Registration is required and the walk is capped at 30 participants.

2. Beer Tasting | 2–4:30 PM
The celebration continues with a 21+ ticketed beer tasting, where guests can sample the finished beers, meet the brewers, and learn how RiNo's landscapes and stories influenced each recipe. Each tasting ticket includes commemorative glassware.

Please arrive early for the Beer Tasting. Beer quantities are limited and pours are available while supplies last; beer is not guaranteed to be available throughout the full 2.5-hour event.

Participating breweries include:

  • Full Frame Beer
  • Flower Shop Beer Werks
  • Our Mutual Friend
  • Ratio Beerworks
  • River North Brewery
  • Strange Craft Beer Company
  • Woods Boss Brewing Company

The Guided Nature Walk is free and open to all ages. The Beer Tasting is 21+, and all tasting attendees must present a valid, government-issued photo ID for admission.

Please note: Participating breweries, programming, and event details are subject to change as plans continue to evolve.
