Douglas County Libraries’ 2024 Brew Tour is underway. This unique collaboration with local craft breweries and coffee shops features a blend of flavor, fun, and community spirit. Running through September 30, the Brew Tour invites participants to explore Douglas County’s local brewing culture while enjoying a variety of engaging events at select library and partner locations.
“The Brew Tour is a fantastic way to celebrate our community, support local businesses, and meet Douglas County residents where they are,” said DCL Special Events Manager Kerri Morgan. “We’re thrilled to partner with local breweries and coffee shops to offer this unique experience.”
Brew Tour participants can earn prizes and rewards by logging visits to the different participating partners during August and September, and they are automatically entered into DCL’s grand prize drawing for a Happy Brew Year, consisting of one premium stainless steel growler with a booklet of fills from the partner breweries. They also earn points toward prizes by attending exclusive DCL-hosted Brew Tour events, like Bookish Trivia and Music Bingo, as well as pop-up Power Hours.
Less than two weeks into the Tour, more than 1,700 participants have generated 1,100 individual brewery visits and 630 coffee shop visits, according to Morgan.
DCL has also partnered with Mix 100 for a Pint for Pint blood donation event on Tuesday, August 27, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at Lone Tree Brewing. Blood donors will receive a voucher for a free pint to be redeemed at a later date as a thank-you. Donors can register at Mix100.com.
Participating in the Brew Tour is a free and fun way to support local businesses and connect over shared passions. Information on Brew Tour events and registration can be accessed via the Beanstack app. Visit DCL.org/brew-tour to learn more and sign up. Must be 18 or older to participate, and 21 or older to consume alcohol.
