Attention, Bauer Beer Fans!

It’s hard to believe, but it’s almost been a year since last year’s Big Beer Tasting. That event went over so well, we’ve decided to give you more bang for your buck this time, and extend it to three hours: 6-9 p.m. on June 20th. This time, we’re holding it at The College Club of Boston at 44 Commonwealth Ave – just a few minutes’ stroll from Bauer, and a quick stumble to the Arlington T stop.

We don’t have details for you yet, but rest assured- it’s gonna be a veritable beer bacchanal, a suds soiree, a frenzy of fermentation, a zoo of zymurgy, maybe even a Kaffe(stout)klatsch, too.

So if you’re reading this, you’re the exact sort of person we want:you’ve been good to us, now it’s time for us to return the favor. Let’s all have a beer together, okay?

In light of the Marathon bombing, we have decided to keep this fun event going and turn it into a fundraising for the One Fund Boston. Proceeds from ticket sales, a voluntary donation bucket AND a raffle of special beers (think Heady Topper!!!) will go to the victims and families affected. Because we love the Back Bay and Boston, Bauer remains Boston Strong.

Cheers,

Tom
