Looking back is always one of our favorite things to do each year - and 2017 was another great trip. We were all over the US once again, with stops in Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania and Michigan; and most importantly the Broadway Brews Project powered forward, with the release of Brews number two and three, with more to come! Get ready for 2018, and “Craft Beer for Good” with us. CHEERS!

THE BROADWAY BREWS PROJECT. Click play for a rundown.... and Happy New Year!
Broadway Brews Project, SCHOOL OF ROCK: Let's meet the Team!
The second Broadway Brew process gets underway as the cast of School of Rock the Musical meets up with brewer and owner Augie Carton of Carton Brewing, at Rattle N Hum West. But this night isn't just all fun and beer drinking, there are jobs to do: What kind of beer will the cast choose to make? What will they name it? And who have they decided that the beer will raise money for?
Each Broadway Brew is a THREE EPISODE SERIES: And for School of Rock, this is Episode One. Click onward to meet and learn more about some pretty awesome folks, and most importantly, raise money for a terrific cause. Cheers!
Many thanks to all the folks who helped out this evening, from Ashlee and Joe at Rattle N Hum West, to Erin, Brad, Jeffry, Holly and all the Broadway Brews fans. Let's BREW!

The Broadway Brews Project beer #2: SCHOOL OF ROCK.
The Broadway Brews Project continues!
Just like we did with Hamilton an American Musical and Gun Hill Brewing recently, we, The Happy Hour Guys, are putting a hit Broadway show together with a local brewer, to brew a beer for Charity. Our eventual goal: The Broadway Six Pack - six shows, six beers, six amazing causes.
And here comes Brew #2; we're matching School of Rock the Musical with Carton Brewing in Atlantic Highlands, NJ - and they're brewing for the good folk over at Sing For Hope.
Brew Day is October 20th, and the release party will be...well, as soon as this kick-ass, hard-rockin' beer is ready.
Craft Beer and Broadway are together again. Cheers!
