13th-Annual Jul-IPA Rooftop Party
Saturday, July 31, noon-3 p.m.

West End Tavern’s annual celebration of the illustrious IPA is back in full swing this year! Tickets are $35 per person and include entry to the rooftop party, access to the live auction, food from the West End Tavern, live music, IPAs from 10+ badass breweries (including Dogfish Head Brewery, New Image Brewing, Bootstrap Brewing Company, Horse & Dragon Brewing Company, and others), and whiskey tastings from Sagamore Spirit Distillery and Breckenridge Bourbon.

Proceeds benefit Safehouse Progressive Alliance for Nonviolence. Tickets can be purchased here.

Bonus: Stop by the Tavern all month long to sip rotating IPAs from participating breweries and ask your server about making a contribution to SPAN’s anti-violence efforts. $5 pays for a ride to SPAN’s shelter, $10 covers one crisis line phone call, and $15 feeds a survivor and their child for one meal.
