Brews for Barks 2025 is here!
Get ready for a tail-waggin’ good time — our biggest in-person fundraiser of the year is back, and it’s going to be better than ever! Join us and your four-legged companions on Saturday, October 4th, from 12:00pm to 4:00pm at Bear Cave Brewing in Hopkins for a day full of beer, bites and barking-good fun.
We’ve got the entire upstairs brew hall and rooftop reserved just for you and your pups! Enter through the front doors, take a quick left before the tap wall and head upstairs. Need the elevator? You'll find it to the left of the kitchen.

How It Works at Bear Cave
Bear Cave is a self-pour brewery. You’ll need to check in at the main floor host stand with your ID and credit/debit card to receive your pour card. You can also order food, NA drinks, and shop for doggy items right from your table using the QR codes.
Get Your Raffle Tickets Early!
Raffle tickets are available for pre-sale — grab them before they’re gone! Most items will also be available the day of the event (while supplies last). Come raise a glass (or a paw) and support Spot’s Last Stop in our mission to rescue and re-home dogs in need. You can pick up your tickets and also purchase tickets day of in the brew hall — look for the ticket table.
Dogs are welcome! Please note: Pups are only allowed on the rooftop and attached atrium (not the upstairs brew hall), and stair access is required — exterior access isn't paw-friendly.
