Aug 14th: Bangor Beer Co & Fusion

Published by bgreendrinks on

Join us we fuse beer, civic engagement, and the environment at Bangor Beer Co. with FUSION:Bangor on Tuesday, August 14th from 5-8pm! Come learn what BBC and Fusion are doing to make Bangor better.

Bangor Beer Co. will be featuring their fresh beers that we hear are somewhere north of ordinary and offering tours of their brewing facility. Weather permitting, *fingers crossed* we’ll be enjoying their brand new beer garden complete with a fire pit, corn hole, and a dome jungle gym (presumably for those well under 21).

As a reminder, Greendrinks is free and family-friendly (BRING THE KIDDOS) — we ask for a $5 donation, and to keep things low-waste, you should bring your own drinking vessel. If you forget, we’ll have compostable cups available for $1, and custom glassware for $5. All event proceeds go directly toward improving sustainability and community in the Bangor region through our Green Grant program
We hope to see you there!

Cheers!
The Bangor Greendrinks Familia

FUSION:Bangor:
FUSION:Bangor is the area’s networking group of engaged residents. The organization works to connect the residents of the area to each other, engage with the community and transform the Bangor region into the preferred place to live, work and play in Maine.

Founded in 2005, FUSION:Bangor is a program of the Bangor Region Chamber of Commerce. It was modeled after its Canadian sister organization, FUSION Saint John, and played an important role in the Chamber’s initiative to foster stronger business relations with New Brunswick. It later became a member of the Realize Maine Network, which works to attract and retain young professionals throughout Maine. Realize Maine is a program of the Maine Development Foundation and consists of eight groups throughout the state.

Since 2005, FUSION has played an instrumental role in shaping the Bangor region into a vital place for young professionals. It regularly offers social, civic, volunteer and professional opportunities for community members, and plays an active role in collaborating with local businesses and organizations.

You can get involved with FUSION:Bangor by coming to one or many of our program events! Newcomer’s Night, Feed Your Brain, Happy Hour Socials, and our FUSION:Sports programs. We will have members of our Steering Committee and Sub Committees present at each of our events to welcome you and connect you with other members. If you have an event that benefits the community and you want members of FUSION:Bangor to know about your events, submit them to our Community Calendar.

Bangor Beer Co.:
We love Bangor and wanted to bring something unique to Bangor. We believe innovative ideas, great ingredients, passion, expertise and some of the best water in Maine will make for excellent beer. We explore a wide variety of styles, hops, and ingredients putting our own unique twist on both classic and contemporary styles. We never limit ourselves with any hard set rules, just aim for the best beer we can make with a focus on continuous improvement, creativity, and evolution.

Our commitment to quality extends to the great food our family has been known for since 1978 at the Oriental Jade. We hope our food is an attraction in its own right, with new rotating pub food fares that complement our beers. We’re one of the first east coast Brewpubs to feature top-notch sushi, wok-fired Chinese food, as well as unique American, international and Asian-inspired Brew pub fare.
