2016 Benefit Brew Charities announced by Phillips Brewing

2016 Benefit Brew Winners Announced by Phillips Brewing Co.

November 21st, 2016 – The votes are in and we’re thrilled to announce that S.A.I.N.T.S. Rescue (BC) and Zoe’s Animal Rescue (AB) as this year’s Benefit Brew Winners!

We will be brewing up a delicious Imperial Pilsner for the S.A.I.N.T.S. Rescue crew, and a special one-off Cascadian Dark Ale for Zoe’s Animal Rescue. Full proceeds from the sale of each will be donated to their causes (~$10,000 each!). The brews are slated to hit the shelves in early February, but in the meantime here’s a little snapshot of the incredible work these groups do:

phillips-benefit-saintsS.A.I.N.T.S. is an end-of-life sanctuary for senior, palliative and special needs animals that have nowhere else to go. We provide a special place to be loved and cherished, and our animals receive proper medical care for the rest of their days. All animals deserve to have hope for a better tomorrow.

 

 

phillips-benefit-rescue Zoe’s Animal Rescue is a volunteer run registered charity. Through fostering, rehabilitation, medical and adoption programs we rehome hundreds of animals a year. Partnering with vulnerable individuals and communities, providing food, veterinary services, overpopulation control and emergency care to keep pets and their people together. Happy animals means happy people.
