Many thanks to Guild members Blacklands Malt, Colorado Malting Company, Deer Creek Malthouse, Riverbend Malt House, and Valley Malt who all contributed malt to this year's yet-to-be-named collaboration beer. The head brewer at Migration Brewing is using those contributions to make 7 barrels of beer for our event. Come celebrate the contributions of craft malt to craft breweries.
