What is Brew for Good?

Brew for Good is a yearly non-profit homebrew tasting event that works to provide funding for East Side Neighborhood Services.

By attending Brew for Good you’ll get to sample unique and exciting beers, meads, ciders, and more. You will also get to hang out with the brewers and raise funds for a great cause; Eastside Neighborhood Services in NE Minneapolis www.esns.org.

An Awesome Location!

We are excited to return to Northern Stacks Events. Their event space is perfectly sized and has an excellent blend of indoor and outdoor space.

Sampling stations will be set up indoors, with the outdoor space reserved for music, entertainment, and mingling.

Beer, doing good!

100% of the proceeds from Brew for Good donations go directly to East Side Neighborhood Services. In 2023 we were able to raise over $3,500 for ESNS!
