“I love seeing all of these awesome women showing what we’re capable of. Women are supporting women and that’s how it should be. The time of the woman is now.”

~Celeste Beatty, Harlem Brewing Founder

“Beer knows no gender, race, sexual orientation. Women are beer makers and beer drinkers too and we have the power to change the industry. ”

~LeAnn Darland, Co-Founder Talea Beer Co.

“Women are breaking down barriers everywhere and the beer industry is no different. It’s time to celebrate how we’re not settling for second best anymore.”

~Rachel, an attendee from Harlem

“Now is the time where we should be celebrating women in all arenas. This is a male-dominated industry and it’s good to see all of these women brewing and drinking beer.”

~Kristin, an attendee from Brooklyn

“This is important because women need to be visible in all industries. This is no different.”

~Sheryl, an attendee from the Bronx

“I had no idea that there were this many women-owned breweries out there. That’s why there should be more festivals such as this so that women can find more ways of supporting other women.”

~Kelly, an attendee from Philadelphia
