Big Game Restaurant will screen a classic, beer-infused flick every night this week to honor the goodness that is beer and to celebrate Denver Beer Fest, which runs through September 19.

Tonight's movie -- which Big Game will show on its thirty-foot HDTV, is Beerfest from 2006 (look below for the full schedule; all the movies play at 10 p.m.).

Big Game will also be giving away pretzel necklaces -- the traditional garb worn by GABF attendees -- to any customer who asks through September 19.
