a fall celebration of community – for a good cause – hosted by your friendly neighborhood breweries!
Oktoberfestiversary returns! Begyle Brewing and Dovetail Brewery are hosting their annual Fall party! Join us in celebrating Chicago’s coolest season and the 14th anniversary of Begyle Brewing, with food trucks, live music, and of course, lots of beer!
A suggested $5 donation at the gate will help us reach 4.5 MILLION MEALS donated from our events to The Friendship Center!
Just a $20 donation can provide about 150 meals to seniors and families facing hunger in the community.
Supporting nearly 6,000 neighbors each month, The Friendship Center is a fresh food, full-choice food pantry providing everyday items and pet food, that also serves hot meals, delivers to homebound folks, and helps people with SNAP assistance and other resources.
