Hurricane Harvey Relief Fundraiser

Family, friends, and fellow breweries have all been impacted by Hurricane Harvey, and we want to help!

This Saturday, $1 from all of our year-round and seasonal beers will be donated to two local non-profits helping Houston with relief and recovery. We are also adding a donation line to our receipts, allowing our customers to contribute an additional amount if so inclined. The proceeds will be split evenly between  BakerRipley and Houston PetSet.

BakerRipley will be helping with long-term relief and is currently operating a shelter.

Houston PetSet is providing emergency funding to the local Humane Society, working to transport animals from endangered shelters, and collecting food and water.

Please join us in helping Houston and Hurricane Harvey victims.
