Community

BBF is sponsoring the Bristol Birdman - where bold creativity meets real impact. Join us on 14th June as teams leap into the harbour in home-made, human-powered flying machines to support youth work across the city. Drink with purpose. Help communities fly.

Community is at the core of Bristol Beer Factory. It’s what we’re built on. It’s our team. Our families. Our friends. Our customers. Our suppliers. It’s Bristol, in all its grit and brilliance. We donate 2% of every beer we sell to charities holding our community together – like the incredible Mazi Project. Hit the fridge, grab a cold can and find out why Mazi needs our support more than ever before.

Walk into a great pub and you feel it straight away. It’s not the hum of conversation, the tapestry of posters and artwork, or the line-up of local beers. It’s the sense that this place really matters - to the regulars and the families living round the corner. Grab yourself a beer whilst we explore four pubs holding their communities together.

International Women’s Day hits different in Bristol. It’s a reminder to show up, speak up, and shape a city that belongs to all of us. Team BBF are marking it with Cowgirl Supernova - a 5% Kölsch brewed by the women of BBF, with purpose and serious main-character energy. Pour it fresh. Be the movement.

In Bristol, rugby is more than a game - it’s a catalyst for change. From classrooms to care homes, the Bristol Bears Foundation and team BBF are channelling matchday energy, into year-round change. Grab yourself a Gates and find out more…

It’s been a long time since payday, and you’re doing Dry January (or someone you know is). It doesn’t matter. Find your community, support independents, and drink with purpose.

Brewed to Give has never been a solo effort - from every customer buying a pint, every pub ordering in BBF, every community running an event and every charity partner holding up our city. Read how we are stronger together...

Join us for the first in a series of conversations where we pour a pint, fresh from the tap, and lift the lid on some of our city’s greatest charities. To kick us off, we caught up with the Director of St Werburghs City Farm, to find out about the Farm, the state of the charity sector and how our pints are trailblazing what business support could look like.

To team BBF, COMMUNITY IS EVERYTHING – and we think you’d be hard pushed to find a better example than at REDCATCH COMMUNITY GARDEN. Grab your favourite BBF pint and join us for a metaphorical stroll through the flower beds as we explore what the Garden is and how our world-class beer is helping to RAISE UP Redcatch.

By getting that last round in, you have helped us raise over £500,000 for community groups across the city. If you didn’t know about Brewed to Give and how our pints are powering change, sit back and be prepared to applaud yourself.

Since May 2023, we have given £182,500 to 250 charities, helping them flip this into £450,000 to fund activities that connect people and uplift communities across the city. What’s next for Brewed to Give?

Our Clear Head donations has smashed the £100k milestone! Join us as we chat to Ben Akers, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Talk Club to find out what this support means to their community.
