Get ready for the most adorable contest of the year! The 2025 Rescue Brew Contest is officially underway. That means your dog or cat could be the face of this year’s limited-edition Rescue Brew crafted by Commonhouse Aleworks.
Think your pet has star power? Here's your big break! Submit your favorite photo and share why your pet deserves to be featured on the Rescue Brew label at CharlestonAnimalSociety.org/
Once entries close, the real fun begins! From April 26 to May 25, the public can vote for their favorite pet star. Each $1 donation equals one vote, so rally your friends, family, and fellow animal lovers to support your pet! The top three vote-getters in both the dog and cat categories will become finalists, with celebrity judges from our sponsor organizations choosing one dog and one cat to appear on this summer’s Rescue Brew label.
"We are looking forward to a record-breaking year," said Pearce Fleming, proprietor of Commonhouse Aleworks. “The photos of the animals are so cute, you will want to vote for more than one.”
The Rescue Brew Launch Party will be held on Sunday, April 13 from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. at Commonhouse Aleworks (4301 O’Hear Ave., North Charleston)
Bring your pup and come celebrate the start of the contest! Enjoy an afternoon of live bluegrass, craft beer, pet adoptions, and even a free pet photo booth to help you capture the perfect shot for your entry. On top of this, enjoy a free pint of beer and a complimentary Charleston Animal Society tasting glass (for the first 100 participants).
BONUS: Nominate your pet and receive 25% off any tasting flight at Commonhouse Aleworks through May 20.
