Beer Army Combat Brewery

The Beer Army has partnered with the Museum of the Marine for the past several years at the Jolly Skull Festival in Greensboro and the Brew Bern Festival in New Bern. Currently they are polling the 1000 square mile area in the Crystal Coast Triangle of North Carolina to help decide where to build the Beer Army Combat Brewery--this will be a local brewery for people in the area to call their own.

Onlsow County could use more jobs and philanthropic donors. If you could please visit their website at beerarmycombatbrewery.com or indiegogo.com/beerarmy for more details--

Tell at least three of your friends through social media or email and make sure you mention the Museum of the Marine as where you heard about Beerarmy and the brewery! Thank you for your support!

Drink beer, raise money for charity and create jobs all at the same time. Did I mention you get to drink beer doing it?
