NRDC’s Earth Day celebration on April 22nd

The National resources Defense Council invites you to NRDC’s Earth Day celebration on April 22nd. The event is the official launch of their “Brewers for Clean Water” campaign – a campaign that highlights the importance of clean water and the Clean Water Act.

NRDC has recruited local and national craft breweries to join its campaign to draw attention to the fact that great tasting beer requires clean and safe water. Six of the Illinois-based breweries who have joined their campaign – Finch’s, Flossmoor Station, Goose Island, Half Acre, Revolution, and Wild Onion – are coming together for a special tasting fundraiser that will support NRDC’s work to protect our fresh water resources.

This is shaping up to be a premiere benefit, featuring delicious craft beer, along with Wild Ophelia chocolate from Vosges and music by the band Gemini Club. As a guest, you will receive samples of beer from all of the participating brewers, appetizers and a souvenir pint glass. We’re also asking people to help spread the word to friends, family and colleagues. You can learn more about the event and purchase tickets at: www.nrdc.org/chicagoearthday2013
