You’re invited to join Young Pioneers of Birmingham to experience a Birmingham treat after Halloween! Back Forty Beer Co.

The free event is open to the first 50 who register through Eventbrite. Tickets are first come, first served!
Back Forty Founder and CEO Jason Wilson will discuss the impressive history of Back Forty Beer Company, its Gadsden roots, and his vision for Alabama. Jason started brewing way back in 2008, right when Alabama decided to free the hops and make commercial brewing easier.

Back Forty B’ham Owner and CEO Doug Brown will show us the newly renovated Sloss Docks facility, discuss how he broke into brewing after a long career in consulting, and discuss his dreams for Birmingham.
The beer is amazing. The food is delicious. The conversation is fascinating. And of course, the Young Pioneers will be there with you!
