Charleston’s Waterways Get Sweeter & Cleaner With SweetWater Brewing Company

June 27, 2012 - PRLog -- Regional environmental advocate, and champion for clean water throughout the southeast, SweetWater Brewing Company officially signed on as Presenting Sponsor of the second Charleston Pub Crawl which will be held on  Saturday August 18, 2012 from 1pm - 9pm and benefits The Charleston Waterkeeper.

SweetWater Brewing Company’s commitment to clean water initiatives attracted the  organizers of The Charleston Pub Crawl to the Atlanta-based brewing company.  Their shared philosophy was made clear when after a recent fundraiser benefitting the Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper, SweetWater Brewing Company’s founder and Big Kahuna, Freddy Bensch stated, “It’s inspiring to see the people come together to help save one of this city’s most precious natural  resources. Which of course, we love because a clean Chattahoochee River gives us the clean water we need to keep making great beer!” The Charleston Pub Crawl founder, Marc Williams, said, “After hearing that from Mr. Bensch, we knew SweetWater was who we wanted as our presenting sponsor.”

While celebrating Charleston’s right to clean water by raising awareness and money for The Charleston Waterkeeper, Participants of The Charleston Pub Crawl will receive $2 SweetWater beer at more than 25 bars and restaurants in historic downtown Charleston venues inbetween Calhoun St and Broad St.  Crawlers will also get complimentary samples of SweetWater Brewing Company beers such as SweetWater 420, Blue, and IPA during the Charleston Pub Crawl block party at Leaf.

To ensure responsible drinking, the restaurants will also be “selling” their clean, Charleston tap water for a one dollar donation, with 100% of those proceeds going to The Charleston Waterkeeper.

Crawlers can either go on a guided pub crawl with SweetWater’s movers and shakers, or chose to do a SweetWater scavenger hunt crawl.  

Tickets for the Charleston Pub Crawl are $25 and will be available online Wednesday July 18, 2012 at www.facebook.com/CHSPubCrawl .
