At each event a local brewer will be pouring three of their delicious and unique beers, including one of their most popular and something historically inspired. Brewers are looking for feedback, so this is a great chance to talk with them directly!
Beer for History is made possible through generous support from Donahue Tucker & Ciandella PLLC
