Tin Roof Brewing Company’s 2nd Anniversary benefiting Cancer Services


Cancer Services of Greater Baton Rouge will be helped Tin Roof Brewing Co. celebrate their 2nd anniversary with a special Food Truck Friday.

An estimated 500 people attended the free event on Friday, November 16th from 5-8 p.m. at the brewery’s location off Nicholson (1624 Wyoming Street). Proceeds from Tin Roof beer sold at the event will benefit Cancer Services’ mission to improve life for those living with cancer. 

Tin Roof is no stranger to hosting Baton Rouge’s food trucks, but this event was unique. John Peak, Marketing Director for Tin Roof Brewing Co., explains, “We love being a part of this community. The opportunity to raise money for Cancer Services while celebrating our 2 year anniversary is really something special.” In addition to their attendance and support, the Baton Rouge Mobile Food Vendors Association will honor the local brewery’s success; each of the food trucks featured a menu item cooked with one of Tin Roof’s five brews.  Participating Food Trucks include Taco de Paco, CURBSIDE, Dolce de Vita Pizza, FRESH, Three Bones and Pullin’ Pork. Live music was provided by local musicians The Rambling Letters.

Cancer Services Executive Director Mimi Riche shared the excitement, “Cancer Services is a local agency completely dependent on the generosity of this community. Partnering with local businesses means so much to us.”
