It’s not a crime to NOT drink beer.
But it should be a crime to not drink beer, not drink a lot of beer, not drink a lot of beer from a lot of breweries and not help out a good cause. Hope that made sense.
That said, we all have a chance to participate in all of the above and raise much-needed funds to fight Cystic Fibrosis, a disease that a few decades ago, people didn’t survive long enough to attend elementary school. Today, people with the disease are graduating from high school and college, pursuing careers, getting married and starting families of their own. THAT, my friends, is as good enough reason to imbibe as any I’ve ever heard.
The event I speak of is the 10th Annual FestivAle, which will take place on Friday, March 23 at Union Station (1820 Market Street, St. Louis, MO 63103)
FestivAle has become a premier beer event in St. Louis. Last year SOLD OUT with 700 attendees and raised $70,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Those numbers necessitated moving to a MUCH BIGGER venue with the location change to Union Station and plan to have more brewers, restaurants, and raise even more money for CFF in 2018!
