Battle of the Breweries 2026

Thursday March 12th

The taps are flowing… but this time, it’s not just about beer.

Rail Werks Brewing Depot is proud to compete in the Battle of the Breweries 2026, a friendly showdown where local breweries rally their communities to collect donations and pantry items for those in need.

This competition isn’t about hops or IBUs. It’s about heart.

From March 8 through March 15, we’re collecting monetary donations and non-perishable pantry items. The brewery that gathers the most of either will be crowned the 2026 Champion. More importantly, together we’ll make a real impact for families in our community.

Stop in, bring an item, drop a donation, and help us bring home the title.

Let’s prove that Rail Werks doesn’t just brew great beer. We show up. 🍻💛
