Harpoon DogtoberfestThis fundraising event welcomes dog lovers and their furry friends to the Harpoon Brewery to celebrate Octoberfest! Stretch those legs with a 1-mile fun run/walk with your pup, then join our “barking lot” party with the freshest Harpoon beer, food trucks and music. We’ll even have a Harpoon Dog Beer made from a 100% malted barley mash with powdered peanut butter directly to the kettle boil! This “beer” contains no alcohol or hops (which is poisonous to dogs), and it is non-carbonated. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Kenary Brain Tumor Research Fund at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute as well as the MSPCA.
See the website for the event lineup!
