Downtown LA’s Arts District is now home to seven craft breweries, along with spirit distillers, fresh pressed juicers and kombucha cultivators. In celebration of this beverage bounty, the first-ever DTLA Breweries United Fest, a brew-tastic block party, hosted by DTLA Breweries United, will take place on Sunday, October 16 from 1-5 pm.
Set in the triangle lot just outside Angel City Brewery, the Breweries United Fest is for all libation-loving locals and will feature locally produced spirits, beer, juices, kombucha and of course – tacos (because, LA)!
The event benefits Keep A Breast, an Arts District-based organization empowering young women around the world with breast health education and support. Space is limited– with only 150 tickets available.
Featured beers will include Angel City Brewery’s 2015 Jameson Ale, Iron Triangle Brewing’s Mulholland’s Stash Barleywine, a tart saision from Indie Brewing Co., and Dry River Brewing’s Parasol Pink. Arts District Brewing Co., Boomtown Brewery, and Mumford Brewing will be rounding out the hop roster with a selection of crowd favorites, alongside some special releases.
Spirit tastings will come courtesy of both The Spirit Guild, makers of Astral Pacifica Gin and Vapid Vodka, and Green Bar, makers of TRU Organic Vodka, TRU Organic Gin, IXA Organic Tequila, CRUSOE Organic Rum, Fruitlab Organic Liqueor and Barkeep Bitters.
Non-tipplers can kick back with kombucha and pressed juice from The Springs LA, while Downtown Taco, a crowd favorite at Angel City’s Tuesday Taco and Trivia night, will be serving up classic Mexican eats.
“We’ve been excited about the idea of a small, local beer fest since the first few breweries joined Angel City in the Arts District,” said Jon Carpenter, Head Brewer at Angel City Brewery. “We are all very excited to come together to showcase what an amazing area this is to visit for a great pint – and more.”
“Keep A Breast” is all about community and grassroots activism. The Breweries United Festival brings together all of our neighbors here in Downtown LA and we are so grateful and excited to spread greater awareness for cancer prevention throughout our very own neighborhood,” said Keep A Breast Founder Shaney jo Darden.

About The Keep A Breast Foundation:
The Keep A Breast Foundation™ is a nonprofit organization with a mission to empower young people around the world with breast health education and support. Since its inception in 2000, KAB has worked with young people to remove the shame associated with breasts and breast cancer health. Through various initiatives such as breast cast art exhibitions, the “Non Toxic Revolution” and “I love boobies!” campaign, KAB has opened up the dialog about breast cancer, and has proven to be a doorway to breast self-awareness and education.
Keep A Breast has grown into the leading global youth-based breast cancer prevention organization, with global affiliates in Japan, Canada, France, UK and Chile. Constantly pushing the boundaries of the pink ribbon status quo, Keep A Breast has always encouraged young people to love their boobies, get to know their bodies and be aware of changes.
