Come experience a weekend to remember in the place Where Brave Women Winter, featuring special guests, specialty tours, and the coolest brewfest in town.Join us for the fifth annual winter festival in Auburn, NY, supporting the women and non-binary individuals of New York’s burgeoning craft beverage industry in the epicenter of equal rights heritage.
The City of Auburn’s Brave Brews: Celebrating Women in Craft Beverage Festival was inspired by the inclusive message and seven-year success of the Pink Boots Society® Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day® held at Prison City Brewing each March.
This annual ritual hosted by Prison City Co-Owner Dawn Schulz is now part of an expanded weekend to kickoff Women’s History Month and create a welcoming environment for fermented/alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverage professionals and consumers. The 2026 weekend will again feature the flagship event, Prison City’s Fire & Ice Festival.
Brave Brews is presented by the City of Auburn and produced in collaboration with Prison City Brewing, NYS Equal Rights Heritage Center, City of Auburn Historic & Cultural Sites Commission, Downtown Auburn Business Improvement District, and the Cayuga County Office of Tourism.
