You may remember that last year, DCBeer.com got involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Brewer’s Ball event. This is an event that blends philanthropy and craft beer and raises money for a great cause toward a cure for a debilitating disease.

Last year, Brewer’s Ball raised over a quarter million dollars, and I hope that this year the event will raise even more.

This year’s Brewer’s Ball is back at the Stars and Stripes Club at Nationals Park and will be held on Saturday, March 3 from 7pm to midnight. Tickets can be purchased here and are $115. A portion of your ticket price is tax deductible.

This is a gala event that includes tasting stations, silent auctions, a live band, dancing, and other fun activities. There’s a great line-up of breweries involved with Brewer’s Ball this year. The list is still being finalized, but so far it includes:
