Pints & Paws Photo Contest

April 17th – May 17th | Online

We’ve partnered with Good Works Brewing to put together two incredible prize packages for this year’s contest – one for the Top Dog and one for the Top Cat. Both the dog with the most votes and the cat with the most votes at the end of the contest (well, their humans that is) will work with the Good Works Brewing team to formulate their very own brew, name it, AND have their pet’s photo featured on the label!

So, is your pet cute enough to win a custom brewing experience??  Here’s your chance to put your beloved companion in the spotlight – it only costs you $10 to register! And it’s easy! Just enter your pet’s picture here.  Then tell everyone – your family, friends, social media followers – and then wait for the votes to roll in!
