We’re thrilled to share that our partner charity for the event is Beer Babes Family! A portion of the proceeds will go to support their incredible work.
The Beer Babes Familyâ„¢ is a charitable organization in the USA and Canada. We are also an online community, and a no tolerance for online bullying platform. We strive to support and positively engage all women in the beer community. This includes the casual beer drinkers to the highest level of brewers, Cicerones and Beer Judges.
We work with breweries around the world to brew beer to raise money to assist women in the beer industry and work with breweries throughout North America to brew Babe Brewâ„¢. Funds raised from a portion of the sales of Babe Brew will be collected and awarded in the form of grants. Grants will be awarded to women who work in the beer industry who are trying to improve their beer business.
Babe Brewâ„¢ is a series of beer dedicated to the women of our personal lives and of the world: who inspire us, push us, make us think deeper, mentor us and lead by example. To the women who break rules and norms, speak their truth with compassion, live each day with unapologetic confidence, and champion equality for all.
Due to the significant costs involved in organizing our event, including venue rentals, permits, staffing, and other essential expenses, we are unable to offer refunds under any circumstances.
We encourage you to review all event details and ensure your availability before making your purchase. We are committed to delivering a memorable experience and appreciate your support in helping us cover the considerable costs of hosting the event.
