Beers Rotarians Enjoy Worldwide (BREW) Fellowship is one of the newest officially recognized Rotary fellowships. The fellowship was created for Rotarians around the world who love to drink and make beer.
BREW was started and organized in 2013 by Past District 5160 Governor Steve Lack, a member of the Rotary Club of Pleasant Hill, California, USA; Moses Aryee, Past President of the Rotary Club of Accra-West, Ghana; and Past District 5440 Governor Martin Limbird of the Rotary Club of Fort Collins Colorado, USA.
District 6150 Governor (2026-2027) Matt Buie, a member of the Little Rock Afterhours Rotary Club, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA, is the BREW Fellowship Ambassador to Arkansas.
Rotarians may join Rotary BREW Fellowship with a one-time $100 lifetime membership contribution. Click the Join button further below!
Q: Is this BREW Fellowship associated with any particular Rotary Club?
A: No! The Fellowship is open to all members and any guests of all Rotary Clubs. We are not affiliated with just one club. We'd love to have you visit!
Q: How much does it cost to attend a BREW Fellowship gathering?
A: There are (currently!) no event registration fees - you only pay for your beverages and food. Of course, you're welcome to buy beer and food for everyone, if you like ... ?
Q: But, I've heard that to officially 'join' BREW Fellowship, there is a joining fee?
A: True, if you want to be an Official BREW Fellowship Member, you can join for a one-time, lifetime membership fee of $100, a portion of which goes to support clean water projects around the world, but this is not required to take part in our events.
Q: I'm not really a beer drinker. Heck, I really don't drink much of any alcohol. Would I be welcome to join or participate in your events for fellowship?
A: 100% absolutely! We welcome everyone even if beer is not your thing.
Q: What is the program like for this BREW Fellowship gathering?
A: We don't (usually) have a special program - come join for fellowship and networking. If you have an idea for a special program, we'd love to hear about it.
Q: Is this a special BREW Fellowship event held only once a year?
A: No, we try to gather at least once every month, except for June and July. Visit our website to see more information about our upcoming events.
Q: Well, it looks like you only have BREW Fellowship gatherings in central Arkansas?
A: If you would like to have a BREW Fellowship in your town, reply to this email and let's talk about how to make that happen!
