THE CURTAIN UP INITIATIVE

Actors, musicians, stagehands, stage managers, ushers, talent managers, and so many more are out of work for the foreseeable future and are at risk of losing everything!

The Curtain Up Initiative is here to help!This is a nationwide brewery collaboration is created by The Happy Hour Guys to help raise awareness and provide a little support to the live performance industry.

Breweries are provided a label and a NEIPA base recipe designed to be free reined to create their best version of the beer. They are asked to donate a portion of the beer’s proceeds to The Actor’s Fund, a local theatre, organization, charity, or artist affected by the pandemic. The rest, the breweries will keep to help pull thru the home stretch of the pandemic.
One base recipe, one label…one mission. 

The base recipe for this initiative was created by Gun Hill Brewing Company in Bronx, NY. It was designed to be a Hazy IPA, in the lower range of ABV for that category. Brewers are in courage to  add their twist or ideas to the beer, and to brew whenever their schedule allows". 

This initiative is Year Round!
