Full Barrel Cooperative Brewery and Venture.co/Designbook are teaming up to co-host a free food & bev event on Saturday, February 13th from 4-7pm at the Designbook flat in downtown Burlington.

The evening will begin with elevator pitches from a few of your local food & bev startups, including Full Barrel, followed by sampling, socializing and networking. Full Barrel will be serving up their delicious home brews from a diversity of Burlington-area homebrewers for sampling and will be on hand to sign up new members. Light snacks will be provided including samples from the presenters.

Please RSVP HERE (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/full-barrel-designbook-co-host-a-btv-food-bev-night-tickets-20709200777), so we can ensure there are plenty of samples for all!

Here is a sampling of what you can expect:

Full Barrel Cooperative's goal is to establish the first consumer-owned brewery and taproom in Vermont. Drawing inspiration from the examples of Black Star Co-op in Austin and Flying Bike Cooperative Brewery in Seattle, as well as the successes of Vermont's vibrant food co-op and credit union sectors, our co-op is actively recruiting members, throwing free monthly home brew events, and preparing for our first round of equity crowd-funding.

Sap! Maple Water products are non-alcoholic beverages made from 100% pure maple sap straight from the maple trees of Vermont. Our products make the time-honored tradition of the maple harvest accessible to everyone, while supporting Vermont’s working landscape and rural economy. As consumers shirk the big brands and go in search of healthy alternatives, we’ll be ready to support their needs with an authentic and great tasting suite of products.

Bunjamin's makes boldly flavored popcorn with a perk: each flavor has a recommended beer pairing. You can enjoy the Vermont-inspired flavors on their own, or as a new partner to your favorite brews!
