What Events Does Blackfoot River Brewing Company Host?

Updated

Blackfoot River Brewing Company hosts community-oriented events in its taproom, and the brewery's website lists upcoming happenings with dates and times. Based on the site's event listings, examples include a Yellowstone Public Radio Listener Event on Monday, October 19th at 4:00 pm and a Feathered Friend Pop Up Shop on Monday, October 26th at 4:00 pm. The brewery also maintains an Events section for upcoming listings and participates in community initiatives such as the Helena Ridge Challenge.

Types of Events Listed

The events shown on the site fall into a few recognizable categories:

  • Community and media events — the Yellowstone Public Radio Listener Event is an example of a gathering tied to a local organization.
  • Pop-up shops — the Feathered Friend Pop Up Shop shows that the taproom also hosts vendor or retail pop-ups.
  • Community challenges — the Helena Ridge Challenge appears as a brewery-affiliated community initiative rather than a single taproom event.

How to Check What's Coming Up

Because event listings change, the most reliable approach is to check the brewery's Events section directly before planning a visit. Each listing on the site includes the event name, a date, and a start time, so you can confirm details rather than relying on a schedule that may be outdated.

If you want updates without checking the site repeatedly, the brewery offers a newsletter sign-up, which is a reasonable way to hear about new events as they're announced.

Visiting Around an Event

If you're planning to attend an event, these taproom details from the site are worth knowing:

Detail Information
Fall business hours Mon–Thu 2–9 pm; Fri–Sun 12–9 pm
Seating Two indoor levels, a 2nd floor deck, and an outdoor parklet during summer months
Pets Well-behaved pets allowed in downstairs outdoor areas
Food Outside food is welcome; free popcorn is served
Other drinks Featured wines, local Montana-made hard cider, and non-alcoholic options

Practical Notes

  • Event times listed on the site are start times, so arriving at the stated hour is the safe assumption unless a listing says otherwise.
  • Since the taproom closes at 9 pm on all days in the fall schedule, evening events will end within that window.
  • For events involving outside organizations or vendors, confirming with the organizer as well as the brewery can help if details change.

For the current lineup, start with the Events section on blackfootriverbrewing.com and use the newsletter if you want advance notice.
