Gay for Brew might be a lot of things. Ultimately, it will be what you make it be, so that ball is in your court.

Purpose & Vibe:
A gathering blending craft beer culture with LGBTQ+ inclusion. Think brewery, taproom, or bar setting, where people of all identities come together to enjoy beer, friends, music, maybe even drag or queer entertainment, all in a safe, welcoming space.

Activities:

Sometimes, fundraising elements, such as raising money for LGBTQ+ nonprofits or charities, are involved.

Atmosphere:
Festive, inclusive, relaxed but celebratory. More community than competition. Music and décor might lean into Pride themes (rainbows, art, inclusive signage).

Audience:
Everyone is welcome, but especially meant as a queer-friendly or queer-centered event. The age limit is usually 21+, depending on the alcohol.

Timing / Format:
Could be a one-off event or recurring (monthly / annually). It could take place in the evening or on the weekend. Might require tickets or pre-registration if space is limited, or be free with paid drinks.

A curated selection of local craft beers, often from breweries known for supporting LGBTQ+ causes or queer ownership.

Live entertainment: DJs, drag performances, queer artists, spoken word or poetry sets.

Possible partner vendors: food trucks, merch, local queer-owned businesses.
