Pints for PBS at Paradox Brewery

Join Paradox Brewery in North Hudson, NY for a week-long celebration and fundraiser in support of Mountain Lake PBS! 

With federal funding for PBS facing cuts, our community is coming together to raise a glass—and raise vital support—for the station that educates, inspires, and connects us all.
  • From October 12th, Paradox Brewery will donate $1 from every pint sold to Mountain Lake PBS. But that's not all!
  • Wednesday, October 15th, 6-7pm, A themed PBS trivia night.
  • Saturday, October 18th, from 5-8pm, we will be hosting the PBS team for a night of fundraising, live music, family-friendly activities, raffle, and more!

Why It Matters

This event is more than a fundraiser—it’s a chance for our Adirondack community and the craft beer industry to stand together for PBS. Public broadcasting preserves our stories, inspires curiosity, and strengthens the civic fabric of our towns. By raising a glass, we’re making a statement: PBS matters here, and it deserves our support.
Come for the beer. Stay for the music, beer, the community—and the chance to make a difference.
