Get Down with FUNK Boston (+ Our FUNK Weekend Event Line-Up)


It’s time to get funk-aaaay because FUNK Boston is right around the corner. 🤘 No, seriously. FUNK is happening Friday, June 14 & Saturday, June 15 at the Cyclorama in Boston. Tix still available here.

Quick run down: FUNK Boston is a Wild & Sour Beer Fest that features 35+ brewers (including a bunch of our favorites!) pouring over 125 beers. Unique and experimental brews will be flowing. The festival will span over two days so come thirsty! Space is limited so be sure to get your tix ASAP.
