Beer Babes Family

What Beer Babes Family does

Beer Babes Family is a charitable nonprofit organization operating across the United States and Canada, founded in 2022 by Roxane (Roxy) Brossoit and Rachel Benkowski. Its core product is Babe Brew™, a trademarked series of collaboration beers brewed with approximately 50+ independent craft brewery partners throughout North America; breweries donate a portion of Babe Brew pint, can, and bottle sales (requested minimum $0.25, with most contributing $1 per unit) into a grants fund. Funds are redistributed as two annual business grants — one US-based and one Canada-based — awarded to women working in the beer industry to purchase equipment such as fermenters, keg washers, canning line components, and dissolved oxygen meters. Five grants have been awarded cumulatively across 2023–2025.

The organization supplements donation revenue with branded merchandise (t-shirts at $25, beanies, trucker hats) sold through its own Wix-hosted storefront and partner resellers (Hop Bomb Apparel in Canada, Brewtiful Adventures). Merchandise and Babe Brew proceeds are routed entirely into the grant program. All operations are volunteer-led; the organization has 1–10 personnel, no paid staff, and is governed by separate US and Canadian boards with six directors total. Distribution relies on brewery taprooms and the partners' existing beer distribution networks rather than direct-to-consumer sales by Beer Babes Family.

There is no proprietary technology stack; the platform consists of a Wix website, PayPal donation integration, an Instagram presence (@beerbabesfamily), an email newsletter, and earned media coverage across beer trade publications and podcasts. The 2024 transition to a single annual can label design (created by Quebec-based Toniko) was explicitly designed to strengthen cross-brewery brand recognition as the partnership roster expanded, with the 2026 calendar showing scheduled Babe Brew releases at 30+ breweries across 15+ US states and two Canadian provinces.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Women of the Vine & Spirits: A nonprofit advancing women across the broader alcoholic beverage industry (wine, beer, spirits). It overlaps directly with Beer Babes Family's gender-advancement mission but operates at a wider category scope that includes beer.
• Pink Boots Society: A nonprofit dedicated to women in the beer industry through education, scholarships, and grants. Directly comparable to Beer Babes Family in mission (empowering women in craft beer) and mechanism (industry-funded grants), making it the closest peer.
• Girls' Pint Out: A national women's craft beer enthusiast community with local chapters that host educational events and brewery meetups. Comparable as a women-in-beer community-building organization, though Beer Babes Family layers in a grants component that Girls' Pint Out lacks.

Emerging players

• SheBrews: A community and annual event series celebrating women in the brewing industry. Comparable as an emerging peer with a narrower geographic footprint and event-led model rather than a national grants program.

Broad incumbents

• Brewers Association: The trade association representing the majority of US craft breweries. Relevant as a broad incumbent in the craft beer nonprofit/advocacy space, but it covers the entire industry rather than focusing on women's empowerment like Beer Babes Family.
