Charity Fundraiser:
We are so very GRATEFUL for this beer community. As we come together to celebrate our love for #HoustonBeer we must also remember that those who work tirelessly behind the scenes may be facing their own battles. The craft beer industry can be demanding and fast-paced, putting a strain on the mental well-being of brewers, bar staff, and everyone involved. We are excited to announce our charity fundraiser happening through Aug 19th benefitting Southern Smoke. The Southern Smoke Foundation supports members of the food and beverage industry in crisis nationwide through emergency relief funding and providing accessible, no-cost mental health services through its mental health program, Behind You. This initiative is so important to us that we decided to make it extra special by offering a unique gift to anyone that donates. Donate $20 or more to this cause using the link below and we will hook you up with this awesome unique event poster designed by award winning beer artist Chris Hernandez as a special thank you! A portion of the ticket sales from the block party will additionally be donated. Posters will be available for pick up during the block party at SpindleTap Brewery starting Aug 19 through the end of the month. These collectable posters will be numbered and signed by the artist. Poster quantities will be limited, one poster per person.
DONATE: Southern Smoke Foundation | Kindful
Attendees who donate the suggested $25 or more monetary donation to the Southern Smoke Foundation fundraiser will receive digitally crafted event poster—while supplies last.
