There are a lot of perks to having one of the largest conventions in North America in your hometown. The first being the fact that it's a short drive to enjoy said con when the time rolls around to attend it. But another perk is everything that comes with the entire community embracing Denver Comic Con.

Ever since its inception in 2012, DCC has planted roots all over the metro area, inspiring incredible event after incredible event and everyone enjoys them so much that they have in many ways become a yearly tradition before the con and one such event is about to arrive once again...the Denver Comic Con Beer Release Party.

Every year DCC and Breckenridge Brewery partner up to create a tasty comic con brew that can only be enjoyed shortly before and during the convention and they always put on one hell of a show to unveil their delicious beverage and this year's release party just so happens to be arriving this Friday.

Yes at 7:30 p.m. this Friday night at Stoney's off of Lincoln, the doors will open to allow fans of Denver Comic Con and Beer Aficionados everywhere their chance to taste the latest DCC inspired creation; Snape-ricot, a crisp apricot lager named after the character who won us over in the Harry Potter franchise with his undying love for Lily, and who was immortalized in film by the late Alan Rickman. To make this beer all the more special, local artist Frankie Serna designed the art for this year's beer, paying tribute to Alan in impressive fashion.

Frankie will be present at the event since his work will be featured on this year's commemorative pint glass, which means that you'll want to line up for this event super early this year; since this limited edition glass will be headed home with the first 200 people who order a delicious Snape-ricot. But if you're not in it for the glass, come down to Stoney's regardless and enjoy live music from Red 5 and Spin Doctors 90's Cover Band and celebrate the wonder of Denver Comic Con a little early. This event is always a good time with great beer and we look forward to seeing all of you this Friday.
