A badge that is only offered every four years, have a beer on 29 February to claim this badge!

Look out for this badge again in 2024!

Mardi Gras

Have any beer on Fat/Shrove Tuesday to claim the badge. Mardi Gras is a Christian festival that leads up to the fast of Lent.

Although most people think of the parades and parties, especially the street party in New Orleans or the Carnival of Brazil.

The date of this festival moves around much like Easter does, but for 2020 Mardi Gras is set for 25 February.

Hoppy Hanukkah

This badge was retired in 2020 and replaced by the non-religious GIVING badge. Previously, you simply had to check into any beer during Hanukkah to claim the badge.

Hanukkah is a Jewish festival that lasts for 8 days and is also known as the festival of lights.

The festival is set by the Jewish calendar which means it is observed anytime between late November to late December on the Gregorian calendar. In 2019 Hanukkah was celebrated between 22 and 30 December.
