Keeping NYC Beautiful 1 Brew At A Time

Published on: October 27, 2016

The New York Restoration Project and The Bronx Brewery have a history of working together on amazing projects. They might seem like an unlikely pair, but their shared love for New York City’s Bronx community undeniably unites them. The Brewery sponsors Twigs & Swigs, a monthly neighborhood greening project with a social twist- including delicious local beer! The team at The Brewery even joins NYRP volunteers across the five boroughs to get their hands dirty then celebrate all the hard work with a happy hour. Important for NYC’s neighborhoods, fun for volunteers!  

Through this partnership, The Bronx Brewery released Bronx Banner this fall, their newest beer, made with The Bronx community in mind. We all know there’s nothing like a cold beer on a crisp fall day, but it gets even better: for every case of Bronx Banner beer sold, The Bronx Brewery will donate 5% of proceeds to NYRP to further their mission of enhancing the quality of life in New York City by restoring and revitalizing open spaces in under-resourced communities. 

Cheers to making our local communities greener and more sustainable! Of course with all this incredible work, each day should end each with a refreshing, local brew.
