Cerberus Ten Year Anniversary Bash
Presented by Cerberus Brewing Company at Cerberus Brewing Company Colorado Springs, CO
TEN YEARS OF CERBERUS!!! That’s 70 in dog years, which means we’re basically distinguished, a little particular, and allowed to nap whenever we want. We’re throwing a full-scale anniversary bash across the beer garden and parking lot to celebrate a decade of beer, dogs, bikes, community, and somehow surviving all of it. This is an all-day, all-out, one-for-the-books kind of party. Expect vendors, nonprofit partners, great neighbors, adoptable dogs, music, special beer releases, limited anniversary merch, old friends, new memories, and at least a few tears for ten damn good years. We built this place with a lot of hard work, a little stubbornness, and a community that kept showing up. This party is for every person who had a pint with us, brought their dog, worked a shift, partied a little too hard, supported a cause, or made Cerberus part of their story. Now come celebrate with us properly.
