The Course


The Will Run For Beer 5k offers runners a rare chance to see where the world’s best craft beer is made! The race starts and finishes at Smuttynose Brewery, while the 5k course is relatively flat and traverses quiet, tree-lined streets in scenic Hampton, NH.
The After-Party


The Will Run For Beer 5k is much more than just a road race. Following the 5k, you have 1.5 hours to celebrate with two beers (21+) and your desired food choice with friends and family. The best part…EVERYTHING’s included with the cost of your registration!
Packet Pick-up
You’ll receive your race bib and shirt at the Registration Tent on the morning of the race starting at 7:00 am. Look for the “Registration” signs in the parking lot of the Smuttynose Brewery. We can’t mail out shirts if you don’t pick yours up at the event, so don’t oversleep!
