We loved meeting everyone who stopped by our booth at this year’s New York State Craft Brewers Festival in Buffalo! 🦬🍻

We poured samples of Shine Theory which was brewed by members of both Buffalo and Central New York chapters of Pink Boots Society on Collaboration Brew Day at Prison City in March!

It was great connecting with new friends to share who we are and what we do to help support the industry!

We also sponsored the Water Balloon Toss which made for an extra fun day celebrating New York State Craft Beer! 🎈

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! 👏👏👏

We want to give a shoutout to ROC Solid Events, Chris Nothnagle, Lovin' Cup for donating proceeds from the Rochester Brewers Throwdown to our Chapter! 🍻

We’re working hard to build a stronger Pink Boots Society and this donation will directly support our growing community in Rochester!

It means a lot to us when people support our initiative. 🥰

Pink Boots Society is a nonprofit that supports and empowers women and non-binary individuals in the fermented and alcoholic beverage industry by helping them advance their careers through education.

We love beer, but we also love cider, mead, spirits, and kombucha.

If you know someone in Rochester who works in any of these industries, reach out to us! 💌

We’re happy to answer questions and always accepting new eligible members! 🍻
