Since June of 2006, the entire proceeds of the Bethlehem Brew Works first Thursday’s “CHARITY CASK NIGHT” has been donated to a local non-profit organization. Better still, the non-profit recipient has the opportunity to present literature and banners, and have representatives on hand for an informal Q&A and info-session about their community work.
A craft brewery draws its character and strength from its community, but it can also give back to the community and help create positive change. That’s the idea behind this series of benefit events that take place at the Bethlehem Brew Works every 1st Thursday of the month.
Our head brewer offers a hand pumped, cask-conditioned ale from a 10-gallon barrel called a firkin. A firkin is a small keg, holds about 9 gallons or so of cask-conditioned, 50°F beer. The cask, or firkin, is always a special, one-of-a-kind beer connoisseur’s treat. It is available only until it runs dry, which could be just hours (or less) after it’s tapped.
Open up your senses to the hop and malt flavors released by drinking a beer from a hand-drawn firkin served at a respectable temperature. Our brewers then work their magic to give each cask its own special character.

Join us on February 20th at 1pm at Fegley’s Allentown Brew Works for the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Lehigh Valley Beer Week!
Be among the very first to sample the winning Pale Ale “LVBW4″ and meet Dave Bennett – the homebrewer behind the recipe for LVBW4. Dave’s brew won the ‘Be Our Brewer For a Day Competition” October, 2015 and brewed the beer on January 30th, 2016 with Fegley’s brew master Beau Baden at the Allentown Brew Works. More about Dave’s win.
Fegley’s infamous Beerman will make an appearance doing whatever it is he does best… giving out FREE SAMPLES of LVBW4!
Dave Bennett, a Union Ironworker Foreman from Northern New Jersey, is a big fan of Imperial Stout and a self-confessed “hop-head but have not yet perfected one (IPA) of my own. So that quest continues…” But his winning pale ale was ‘perfected’ and brewed with Matcha green tea, honey, mango, peach, and a touch of Demerara sugar.
February 20 to February 27, 2016

Join us at Fegley’s Brew Works to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day ALL WEEK LONG!
We’re planning another spectacular time at Fegley’s Allentown Brew Works on Saturday, March 19th as our Brewers are proud to host this special event with exclusive cask creations. Featuring 32+ cask beer selections, dozens of breweries, a fun St. Patrick’s Day theme with a Celtic food buffet, O’Grady Quinlan Irish Stepdancers, the Puttle Golf Championship for charity and oh so much more!
Celtic Cultural Alliance is very excited to announce the 6th annual “Celtic Classic Parade of Shamrocks”! This St. Patrick’s Day celebration will take place in Historic Downtown Bethlehem, on Saturday, March 12th and Fegley’s Brew Works is a proud sponsor and Bethlehem Brew Works offers the best seats in town! The parade will step off at 1:00pm beginning at 10th Avenue & W. Broad Streets. It will continue east on Broad to Main Street and makes its way south on Main Street, ending under the Hill-To-Hill Bridge.
“Downtown Bethlehem will be awash in green, the sound of bagpipes and the sight of Irish dancers. We are honored to have a large representation of the U.S. Military, along with local high school and middle school bands. You will see some of your favorite community groups like the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, along with beautiful floats!”

Friedrich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA)
Help us Advance the Research to cure Friedreich’s Ataxia. “Acting alone, there is very little we can accomplish. Acting together, there is little we will not accomplish.” Ron Bartek, FARA Founder and President – Read more at www.curefa.org
The way this program works is simple. We get together with a local non-profit organization, ask them if they would like to participate, and choose a date. Friends, colleagues and fans of the organization print out Dine Back ticket vouchers, bring them along on the designated date and give the ticket to their server or bartender. At the end of the night we tally things up and will donate 20% of the ticket holder’s purchases back to the charity.
We’re looking forward to seeing some new faces at Fegley’s through this program, and we hope that you join us in supporting the local community. Anytime we can, we try and find ways to give back to this community which has given us so much throughout the years.
If you are a member of a non-profit and would like to join us for a Dine Back event please contact community@thebrewworks.com for more information.
