This month we're running CBR Bridge n' Brunch (#CBRbridgeNbrunch) to the 2017 Charleston Beer Garden! Proceeds from the Charleston Beer Garden benefit Lowcountry AIDS Services, which means we'll be drinking for a good cause! There will also be food trucks at this event, so bring some extra money for grub. GA tickets pay for 5 beer samples, Homebrewers' Village access and other fun activities! (VIP tickets get you a little more)

Don't want to run? You can sign up to volunteer and get free entrance to the event!
