The inaugural Run For Beer 2017 takes place on Friday November 24 at Clark Quay, Singapore’s premier nightlife destination. Touted as Singapore’s largest beer running event, Run For Beer 2017 will celebrate friendships, bonding and active living through a common love for beer.
A fun social event at the heart of the city
The Run For Beer is organised by Enterprise Sports Group (ESG), the founder of the Cold Storage Kids Run and the Great Eastern Women’s 10km Run.
Said David Sim, Executive Director of ESG, “We recognise that there is a segment of people who love beer as much as leading an active lifestyle. We decided to put that together into this social fun event at the heart of the city. Running has always been a popular sport in Singapore and enjoying a good beer, especially amongst friends, is just as loved.”
This is the first time that a beer running event will be held and promoted in the heart of the city.
A 3.2km route beginning at Clarke Quay’s Fountain Square
The run begins at Clarke Quay’s Fountain Square and runners will enjoy a breezy 3.2km route along the Singapore River, showcasing landmarks such as the Raffles Landing Site, Boat Quay and Cavenagh Bridge.
The finish line will bring runners back to Clarke Quay where they will be rewarded with beer and exclusive F&B discounts from the event’s merchant partners. Post run activities also include games, band performances and more.
The ideal event for runners to hang out with good friends over beer
Said Sim, “We see Run for Beer as the idea event where runners can hang out with good friends for the perfect TGIF (thank god it’s Friday) by getting a simple work out before enjoying the cold beers and continuing to have a great time at Clarke Quay. We also hope to promote responsible drinking with this event and are working closely with event partners to ensure this.”
Events Promotes Fancy Dress
Run for Beer also promotes dress up amongst participants, with attractive prizes being given out across five fancy dress categories – Best Dressed Male & Female, Team, Organisation and CEO.
Runner Entitlements
All runners will receive entitlements such as an especially designed event tee, finisher’s medal, and special promotions from participating outlets at Clarke Quay including complimentary cold beers, which will only be served to runners after completion of their run.
Said Sim, “We look forward to a strong participation in this event and will like to thank our corporate partners Clarke Quay, American Express and TimeOut Singapore for their support.”

funny moment dont have but remember a scarcy experience instead with my sister, Susan Yeo. Remember there is an occassion where she out for drink with her colleagues till she knocked out totally as she cant hold very well…
Lucky she called me before she knocked out but I still take some time to reach her. Imagine a sweet lady literally lie down motionless… surrounding her are two perverts who are taking their chance. I managed to reach in time before they get fresh with her…. Cant imagine if she didnt manage to call me nor me reach in time… so be responsible when go drinking; either arrange someone to pick you up or control yourself.
So hopefully can this tix and bring her for a drink. this time, she need not worry as I am with her…
Liked & Shared! Cannot think of a better person than @okrachel because her life literally revolves around running and beer! Just the perfect combination for her! One of the funniest incident that has happened was when our grandma who thought that the beer @okrachel was drinking was a soft drink and went on to drinking many mouthfuls of it only realising later it was actually beer! P.s no grandma was harm in the process tho just pure fun and laughter haha thank you for the giveaway!
