1st Annual Tri-Brewery Volksmarch and Canned Food Drive

1st Annual Tri-Brewery Volksmarch and Canned Food Drive

With the number of craft beer breweries in this seaside town now equaling the number of stoplights (that would be 3), Island Brewing Company, Rincon Brewery, and BrewLAB are teaming up for the 1st Anuual Tri-Brewery Volksmarch and Canned Food Drive. The idea is simple: embrace the old German tradition of the 'Volksmarch', or people walk, and hike a 2.3-mile route from brewery to brewery to brewery in the aim of supporting our local Santa Barbara Food Bank (http://www.foodbanksbc.org/) while promoting fitness, fun and fellowship.

The walk starts Sunday, November 16, at 1:30 pm at Island Brewing Company. All participants will be required to donate two cans of food, after which they receive passports that will be stamped at each brewery. The first stop will be a visit to the newly opened Rincon Brewery, followed by a walk to the other newly opened BrewLAB, following the final leg back at Island Brewing Company for more food, frivolity, and a commemorative medal.
