Each year Alefort creates unique and high-quality food and beverage experiences that illuminate the intersection of craft beverage and local cuisine with Boise’s greater culture.
For Treefort 10, Alefort is pulling out all the stops to bring you the craft beer programming you know and love at Alefort Pub + introducing Future Pub: Boise’s favorite foods reimagined as plant-based and sustainable eats of the future. Groove over to Alefort Lounge for cocktails, wine, oysters + plus brunch programming from Comedyfort on Saturday and Dragfort on Sunday!
Alefort is free and open to the public but you can get the most out of your time spent sippin’ in the tent by snagging a Buzz Pass. A Buzz Pass allows thirsty Treeforters to jump the line, tap into a secret menu, and access private bathrooms within Alefort.
