Limited-run beer being produced for Jones Beach charity run

Brewers from around Long Island are working to produce a limited-run charity beer for the 14th annual Marcum Workplace Challenge run-walk at Jones Beach State Park on July 30. More than 200 companies and 12,000 Long Islanders are expected to attend the annual fundraising event. The 3.5-mile run-walk has raised more than $930,000 for Island charities since its inception. On Monday we got to watch the making of the limited-run beer, called the Marcum Workplace Challenge Beer, a lightly dry-hopped wheat beer with citrus peel being brewed by Ghost Brewing Co., a new brewery and tenant in the Great South Bay Brewery’s Bay Shore operation.
