Host Your Event at the Brewery
Celebrate life's biggest moments in the heart of Estes Park. From rehearsal dinners and welcome receptions to birthdays, retirement parties and corporate retreats, Avant Garde Aleworks offers a welcoming mountain setting for events of all kinds. Explore our event options below and discover how our flexible spaces, handcrafted beverages, and personalized planning process can help bring your vision to life.
Why it worksA brewery setting that still feels intentional
Avant Garde offers a space that feels relaxed and approachable while still giving your celebration the attention it deserves. The indoor taproom and outdoor patio work together to create an easy flow throughout the event, giving guests space to gather, connect, and settle in naturally.
Guests can move between the taproom and patio, grab a house-made beer or hard seltzer, take in the mountain views, and experience the energy of a working brewery in a setting designed for gathering.
As a family-owned and operated brewery, we take a hands-on approach to every event and offer the flexibility to personalize the experience while keeping the planning process simple and stress-free.
Whether you're gathering for a few hours or an entire evening, our goal is to create an environment where guests feel like they get real time together, not just another event on the calendar.

ReviewsWhat People Are Saying
We had the welcome party for our wedding weekend at Avant Garde and it was perfect! We had about 160 guests attend, and there was more than enough space between the inside & patio. The views are stunning, they had a great amount of seating, and of course the drinks were delicious (loved the Frosé). The staff were super helpful. They had the whole patio set up, played our music, and worked with the caterer to set up. Also a great price for that size group!

My husband and I enjoyed every minute of our reception at Avant Garde Aleworks! The staff, atmosphere, the music, and drinks were all fantastic! Our guests could not stop raving about the brewery and the catering, which Alex the manager helped recommend to us. We look forward to spending anniversaries here and recommend it to anyone who is wanting a personal, unique place to have any event here!

Avant Garde Aleworks was a FANTASTIC venue to host an event!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We used them for our wedding welcome party, and it was truly the perfect space. The team at Avant Garde set up the space with many tables and seating areas on the patio, and had blankets available if people got chilly as the night went on. They made it so easy for us to come, have our party, and leave with minimal prep or cleanup.
Courtney & Daniel
Our wedding rehearsal luncheon at Avant Garde Aleworks was wonderful! They were so helpful and communicative during the process and had great recommendations for catering. We had a great time and everyone enjoyed their beer cocktails and corn hole games!
