🦇🍻 Bats & Brews 2026 — A Free, Family-Friendly Conservation Celebration!Saturday, January 24 • 12PM–4PM | Swamp Head Brewery
Join Lubee Bat Conservancy and Swamp Head Brewery for the 5th Annual Bats & Brews! This FREE EVENT is perfect for all ages and your once-a-year chance to meet Lubee’s charismatic bats up close - along with some of their equally charming animal friends.
Learn why bats are the real MVPs of the ecosystem, enjoy hands-on activities, and take in all the fun vibes only Swamp Head can provide.
🦇 Sunset Surprise (Maybe!)
At 4 PM, the Lubee bats and friends head home for dinner - but hang around!
If conditions cooperate, you might witness the spectacular Swamp Head Bat House emergence at sunset. Lubee staff will be on-site to answer questions and point out the coolest moments. Don’t be late… nature doesn’t do encores.
🍺 #NoBatsNoBeer — Cheers for a Cause!
Swamp Head will be pouring your favorites PLUS the exclusive Sky Puppies Beer, brewed just for this event.
