New Belgium Beer and Clips Tour Raises $4,000 in Reston

With the help of a few cold ones, New Belgium Brewing Company was able to raise more than $4,000 for a local nonprofit organization.

New Belgium’s Clips and Beer Tour came to Reston last Thursday, attracting more than 700 members of the community to the town-wide event. As a result, the brewing company was able to raise $4,318 for Fairfax Advocates for Better Bicycling, the local nonprofit chosen by the Reston tour stop.

The tour will make 20 stops in total when all is said and done, and while the tour has come to the D.C. area in the past (this is the sixth annual Beer and Clips tour), this marks the first time it visited Reston.

Patrons came to enjoy some rare New Belgium beers you won’t find in many stores, and were also treated to a short film festival featuring films made by fans of New Belgium beer.

Since 2010, the Beer and Clips tour has raised more than $600,000 for nonprofits across the country.
