Bit O' Balsam Beer Launch with Lawson's Finest Liquids

Lawson's Finest Liquids Taproom, 155 Carroll Road Waitsfield, VT
4 - 7 pm

VCE and Lawson’s Finest Liquids have teamed up once again to brew up Bit O’ Balsam, a specialty beer with a special purpose.

Join us at Lawson’s taproom on August 19th to celebrate the subtle taste of montane bird habitat. Proceeds from sales of the limited batch of Bit O’ Balsam beer benefit our longterm monitoring program Mountain Birdwatch. Hear from the scientists researching Bicknell’s Thrush (the bird featured on the beer’s label), and get the opportunity to name an individual Bicknell’s Thrush for the second annual Race to the Atlantic if you donate enough to deploy a tracking tag. Event starts at 4 pm with remarks starting at 5:30 pm.

You can even join the fun early, head to our online shop to buy a Bit O’ Balsam T-shirt.
