What is YYC Beer Week?
It’s a celebration of local beer, of course! This week-long event hosted by YYC Beer Guys in partnership with JustBeer and many other media partners is meant to shine a light on the thriving craft beer community here in Calgary.
Proceeds from the events and sales will go to local charities like:
- Alberta Children’s Hospital
- The Children’s Miracle Network Canada
- Allies for Autism Foundation
- Autism Calgary
- Brown Baggin for Calgary’s Kids
