Don’t Forget About the Village Beer Rebate! In celebration of Neighbour Day, we have partnered with our buds at Village Brewery again this year to offer community associations a rebate on all beer purchases made throughout the month of June! What does this mean? When any Calgarian purchases Village beer anytime between June 1st to 30th, and gives a copy of their receipt to their local community association, the organization will get a 15% rebate on all beer purchases made throughout the month. As community associations you can also join in and use your beer purchases as part of the rebate! Village Brewery is always happy to work with community associations to provide you with beer for your summer events, and is flexible in helping work within your budget. Click here for more info. |
