Habitat for Humanity’s Craft Brew Tour Cards aren’t just a ticket to great beers — it’s a passport to building homes, strengthening communities, and blending the best of Western New York’s craft-beer scene with the mission of giving back.
In short: Craft Brew Tour Cards are more than coupon books — they are a curated craft-beer adventure across a region with a rich brewing tradition. Every pint redeemed and every card purchased is also a brick in someone’s future home. In a world where many charities compete for attention, programs like this channel the energy and passion of local beer culture into something real, concrete, and long-lasting.
Craft beer for a good cause – plain and simple. Real, tangible change in our own backyard, our own communities, all fueled by the beer, cider, or spirit in your glass.
