Bauer Wine & Spirits Big Beer Tasting benefits The One Fund
Bauer Wine & Spirits is the rare Newbury Street business geared toward residents rather than tourists (the antique jeweler Small Pleasures is another, but we're getting off track). A friend who lives in the area raves about Bauer's selection and service.
The store is holding its second annual Big Beer Tasting on Thursday, June 20. The tasting takes place at the College Club at 44 Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay and runs from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In light of the recent events, 100 percent of the proceeds from the event are being donated to One Fund Boston.
Among several tables of distributors and brewers, there will also be a raffle for some hard-to-find bottles and a big gift basket from Craft Brewers Guild. Tickets are $25.
