Each year we like to do something special for those in treatment over the holiday season. This year we will be making cards with words of love, hope and encouragement. Drop in Saturday, December 14th anytime between 9:30 AM – 1 PM.
Help raise awareness, all while enjoying some great chili from your local community. Westfax Brewing will be hosting a Chili Cook Off to raise awareness for “National Eating Disorder Month”. $12 gets you to participate in the chili tasting (tasting up to 10 different chilis), your first beer, and the ability to vote for your favorite chili for a chance for them to win “Peoples Choice”.
$6 from every ticket sold will be donated directly to “The Eating Disorder Foundation”.
Starting at 1PM ticket sales will begin as well as the Chili Tasting and will run until 4 or until the chili is gone. At 3:30PM we will announce the winner of the Chili Cook Off so make sure you vote for your favorite Chili by 3PM!
Serving sizes will be served in 2 oz servings totaling up to at least 20 oz of chili for you to consume plus your first beer included!
We are still looking for Chili Cook Off Participants and will only be taking a very limited number. If you are interested in joining as a cook please email justin@westfaxbrewingcompany.com with your inquiry or simply stop by the taproom and see your bartender for details. All cooks must pay a $5 reservation fee, but it will get you your first beer, happy hour pricing the day of event, ability to participate in the tasting, and the opportunity to win “Peoples Choice” where you’ll receive a gift card and merch to Westfax Brewing.
