More than 1,500 people attended the festival last year, Hieber said, and moving to a new venue, the Town Hall Collaborative in the Santa Fe Arts District, allows for double the number of guests. The event, founded in 2021 by the female- and queer-owned businesses Goldspot Brewing and Lady Justice Brewing, raised more than $6,000 for organizations such as Queer Asterisk and Transformative Freedom Fund in its inaugural year, and is aiming higher in 2022, said Goldspot owner Kelissa Hieber. June is Pride Month and among the myriad of places to tap into the celebration are breweries, which are hosting events, releasing specialty beers and pouring donations into Colorado’s LGBTQ community throughout the month.Īt Denver’s second annual Big Queer Beerfest on June 18, for example, drinkers will find 35 breweries serving unique recipes for a variety of causes.
