Live music from 6-8 p.m.

Throughout the afternoon and evening of the tapping party, Routt County Riders will provide cycling, trail and membership information.

Limited edition Prickly Pedal merch will be for sale, and Mountain Tap Brewery will donate $1 from every pint of Prickly Pedal sold to Routt County Riders.

Prickly Pedal was brewed with prickly pear cactus fruit, a nod to the desert-recreation season that annually jumpstarts just as Colorado ski areas close down. It’s light, tangy and oh so quenching!
