Lone Tree Brewing Company Celebrates 10 Year Milestone

LONE TREE, CO– 4,000,000 cans produced. 27,675 barrels of beer brewed. 1,705,476 pounds of grain and 36,000 pounds of hops used. Colorado craft beer staple Lone Tree Brewing Company is turning ten this December and celebrating all weekend long December 10, 11 and 12.

When its doors opened in 2011 near Park Meadows Mall, Lone Tree was the very first brewery to call it’s namesake, Lone Tree, Colorado, home. Since then, they’ve poured and canned enough beer to fill 1.3 olympic swimming pools, and have grown along (and grown up) with the city of Lone Tree.

“When we opened in 2011 we were the 115th brewery in Colorado. I never could have predicted the explosion of openings from there,” says Lone Tree Founder John Winter. We’re very proud to be a part of the unprecedented growth of the craft beer culture in the state.”

Lone Tree’s neighborhood-focused, family-friendly brewery and tasting room has been a craft mecca and meeting place for Coloradans and out of towners alike for a decade, and will be the base camp for an anniversary weekend chock full of celebration, music, food, specialty swag, and most importantly: lots of beer releases.

There will be one-time only glassware available all weekend and guests can snag a 12oz glass with an event-specific celebratory message. And, if a glass isn’t enough Lone Tree merch, there will also be a few other items and bonus anniversary weekend discounts for guests to enjoy.
