This spring, let AARP Minnesota buy you a beer. We’re partnering with local breweries for multiple AARP On Tap events, and you won’t want to miss out. These events are great opportunities for those who want to meet and connect with other members, learn more about AARP, or just enjoy a free brewery tour. Help AARP fight hunger in the Twin Cities while you enjoy some local craft beer. Make sure to bring a non-perishable food donation, and in exchange, we’ll treat you to a beer. Check out the specific event and registration details below.
