Omaha Breweries Team Up With Drink Local Think Global to Give Back

Drink Local Think Global (drinklocalthinkglobal.org), a local non-profit organization, hosted its second annual Omaha beer tasting event as a fundraiser to provide clean water in developing countries on April 29th at The Omar Bakery Building. The purchase of one ticket is enough to provide six people clean water for an entire year, and 100% of ticket sales from the well-attended event will go directly towards the cause.

The event featured beer from every brewery that is currently open in Omaha: Benson Brewery, Brickway Brewery & Distillery, Farnam House Brewing Company, Infusion Brewing Company, Lucky Bucket Brewing Company, Nebraska Brewing Company, Scriptown Brewery, Thunderhead Brewing Company and Upstream Brewing Company. Along with the beer tasting, there were two live musical acts, opener Jocelyn and headliner Carson City Heat, and local food truck vendors were on-site. D-Wayne, nationally known beatboxer and voice artist, was the emcee for the evening.
