Join us for the 3rd Annual Harpoon Helps pre-Thanksgiving Beer-B-Q, right here at Harpoon in Boston on Sunday, November 15. Once again, we’ve joined forces with our friends at the New England Barbecue Society (NEBS) to put together a Thanksgiving meal, barbecue-style, to raise money for the Greater Boston Food Bank’s annual Food Fund, which supplies Thanksgiving meals for families in and around Boston.

The folks at NEBS will hitch up their huge smokers, park them in front of the brewery, and smoke a whole gaggle of turkeys, with all the trimmings. Fun music will be provided by the Goodtime Stringband. Not only that, the NEBS team will be on hand to give you some tips on how to make your Thanksgiving meal a little different this year with some interesting recipes from the menu. Speaking of which, check out the menu – it’s incredible. We’ll have one big long table in the brewery’s warehouse for everyone to gather around, feast, and be merry – all for a great cause.

Of course, there will be plenty of fresh Harpoon to go with the meal. What’s a pre-Thanksgiving-barbecue-style meal without Harpoon?!

So come have an unbelievable meal, wash it down with some fresh beer, and do it all for a great cause – so other folks in our area can enjoy Thanksgiving too.

This 4th annual, not-to-be-missed, all-day event will be once again filled with some of New England ’s finest bluegrass & country music talent. The 7 bands performing are: Stillhouse Jammers, Acoustic Blue, Crossover, Big Apple’achia, Old Country Road , a reunion performance of the Cowtippers and Chasing Blue. Chasing Blue is a band of hot, young pickers from Berklee College of Music in Boston , including Maggie MacKay on banjo-who is a recipient of the Caouette Music Scholarship (and a member of the Goodtime Stringband)!! A Blueridge guitar will highlight the list of raffle prizes including 50/50 festival tickets, CDs, and many local gifts as well. Doors open at 11:30 am for the noon show that will go until 7pm with food concession/ refreshments and a cash bar available all day. Tickets are still only $15.00 each & available at the door .

The CAOUETTE MUSIC SCHOLARSHIP was founded in memory of Bernie Caouette, a retired Captain from the Acton Fire Department and builder of Caouette Banjos. The scholarship is available to deserving students wishing to further their education in a Music career and/or children of fire department personnel.
