…..Cause Nothin’ Beats an Ice Cold Montana Brew!!


  There is a sense of pride that goes along with being a Montanan. We work hard, play hard, and we enjoy the reputation for the quality in both. In Montana, the craft brewing industry is thriving. What was once considered “bud light or coors light?” has been replaced with a diversity and complexity that is as much science as it is enjoyment. 2000 miles and 30 days. That’s what it would take you to travel the breweries that are represented at this years MT Brews and BBQ. We are proud to say that this years MT Brews and BBQ’s will feature almost 70 flavors representing breweries that hail from every corner of the treasure state, but only, and exclusively, from the 406. It allows our community to delight in breweries, and communities, that, without this event, they may not ever be able to experience. Local brewers showcase seasonal creations and beers brewed specifically for this event. By doing so, this event is the only place some of these beers can be experienced. As much as it is about the beer, it allows for our community to immerse themselves in the 406 subcultures that surround each brewery and help define the flavors that they develop for each of their communities. By experiencing these Montana subcultures and the products, especially craft beers, representing them it allows us all to further our understanding, and find the heart behind, what it means to be from, and to strengthen our bond as Montanans. Come Early as we will have specialty flavors you cannot find anywhere else in town. But like all specialty beers, their quantities are limited so come early and experience the diversity of beer you never knew existed. Exclusively kegged, exclusively Montanan. ‘Cause Nothin’ Beats an Ice-Cold MT Brew!

Food Trucks Galore

You know that tingly sensation when slow smoked, hand carved, mouth-watering bbq aroma dances through your nose. You can hear the sizzle as it touches the grill. This years Montana Brews and BBQs will be a foodies delight! 15 of Billings Best Food Trucks will present an extravagant variety of cuisine. The food truck assortment is as diverse as the beer! Come for lunch and stay for dinner! Regardless of what makes your mouth water you will find it, ready to devour.

Live Music

What makes Local Beer and Local Food over the top? Live. Local. Music! Billings sensation D’tective will keep your toe tapping all night long!
