Recently I was asked to sponsor an event for the upcoming Jacksonville Beer Week taking place April 2-7. What I came up with was The Jacksonville Beer Week, Springfield Brew Crew Downtown Pub Crawl on Friday, April 6. The event will be for the benefit of The Bridge of Northeast Florida in Springfield.

A bit more information about the event itself:

The pub crawl will visit between five and seven downtown pubs. Each pub will offer drink discounts and hold a raffle for prizes. We will also place donation buckets at each pub to gather more funds towards our goal of providing The Bridge with a significant donation. At the final stop of the pub there will be grand prize drawings open to all participants who have completed the entire crawl (hint there will be several and one will be a much-coveted Intuiton Mug Club membership!)

The Jacksonville Landing is hosting the registration and pre-crawl mixer.

Our current lineup of bars/pubs includes:


  • Fionn MacCool’s
  • Burrito Gallery
  • Burro Bar
  • Northstar Substation

With more to come.

In addition to these establishments, I have obtained commitments from several restaurants at The Landing that they will provide beer or drink specials to crawlers during the registration/pre-crawl mixer.

Those establishments include:


  • Benny’s Steak and Seafood
  • Vito’s Italian Restaurant
  • Rush Street Lounge

I am still working with several more establishments to get them on board as well.

The registration period/pre-crawl mixer will begin at 5:30 PM, crawl instructions and announcements will be at 6:45, and the crawl will begin at 7:00 PM.

Each participant will receive:


  • A souvenir acrylic pint glass
  • One free drink ticket
  • Discounted LOCAL and FLORIDA beers during the crawl
  • Eligibility to be entered in all drawings
  • Fun and surprises along the way

And, if they complete the entire crawl, elegibility in the gand prize drawings.

The overall sponsor of Jacksonville Beer Week is Intuition Ale Works. As a business, this brewery is committed to making Jacksonville a better place for us all and they host many philanthropic events.

Our hope is to be very successful this year and to make the crawl into an annual event. With the proper support I think that this can become a highly attended and anticipated event.

Tickets are only $15 and can be purchased at http://www.sprbrewcrew.com or at the event itself.

More information about the Jacksonville Beer Week and all the activities goingonwith it can be found at: http://www.beerweekjax.com.

Hope to see you on the crawl!

Want to get your hands on a coveted Intuition Ale Works Mug Club membership?

One membership will be raffled off as a Grand Prize at the Jacksonville Beer Week, Springfield Brew Crew Downtown Pub Crawl on Friday, April 6.

Tickets are only $15 and benefit The Bridge of Northeast Florida in Springfield.

Here is some information about The Bridge from their website:

QuoteThe Bridge of Northeast Florida Inc. is a unique 501 © (3) agency whose goal is to provide the children that live in some of Jacksonville’s most crime infested, impoverished neighborhoods with the opportunities they need to overcome barriers and to support them as they aspire to better their lives.

The continuity, stability and experience of The Bridge staff are the key to the successful outcomes of our programs and initiatives. Most of the leadership team possesses advanced education and vast experience working with at -risk youth in various capacities. We have a history of private and public partnerships that provide productive, successful opportunities for the children and teens in our programs.

While there are other neighborhood programs providing after-school activities, only The Bridge operates a “holistic” model that addresses academics, health, social enrichment, mentoring, job skills training and jobs.
