Red, White & Blue @ BRQ 2024 - "Rovers to the Rescue"

Come join us for our annual charity cocktail competition and cochon de lait to raise money for Brothers and Sisters in Arms! Brothers & Sisters, founded in 2009, takes rescued and donated dogs, training them into full service dogs at NO cost to disabled veterans and first responders. Our goal this year is to help them renovate a donated structure so that they have a training school/facility/location of their very own!

There is no cover charge to enter and tickets for food and drinks are priced below.

We've formed 5 teams, consisting of one veteran and one local professional bartender, whose task is to create a cocktail inspired by their favorite dog. Each team was assigned a sponsored spirit and we'll have a judges' favorite and a crowd favorite.

All guests over 21 are invited to buy a drink card, try each of the cocktails, and vote for their favorite.

BRQ is providing their world famous cochon de lait spread with sides of pit beans, potato salad, mac n cheese, cole slaw, chips, pickles and carrot cake bites.

We have drink card tickets, dinner tickets and combo tickets. Advance combo discount tickets will be offered. Can't join us? Please consider buying a meal ticket to feed one of our veterans/participating team members.
