Hope for Henry - Clear my Cellar

My best friend's dad recently had a stroke and has been in the Hospital since February. I grew up across the street from the Schott's and hung out with them often. They even took me along with them to Disney World and Gatlinburg on some family vacations. Henry is seriously one of the greatest guys I know. He was always fun to hang out with and super funny. He's a fantastic dad who loves his family and it shows. I've copied what his daughter, Tara, wrote on their Gofundme page to give you more information about his condition...

So this is where you come in. Their Gofundme page has raised $9,400 so far. I'd love to see the beer community that I've been a part of for 6 years now help get it to $15,000. So this evening I went through my temperature controlled beer dedicated mini-fridge and took inventory. Hopefully the best of what I have is enticing enough to get us to $15K.

Every $10 you donate will get your name in the drawing. If you want your name in the drawing don't donate anonymously. I didn't create this Gofundme so I can't see any donation details outside the normal blips on the page so if you give anonymously I can't verify your donation. Please put your BeerAdvocate Handle as the name when donating. Also, shoot me an email ([email protected]) or BM telling me the amount you donated. I'll then cross reference with the Gofundme page to give you credit. So here are the boxes I came up with...

Box 1 - New Glarus goodies (Wild Peach will be included)
Box 2 - Hair of the Dog (Adam From the Wood 1L 2014, Adam from the Wood 2014 12oz, Cherry Adam From the Wood 2014, Matt 2013)
Box 3 - Cantillon (Fou Foune 2012, St. Lamvinus 2012, Mamouche 2014, Vigneronne 2013)
Box 4 - 3F (Hommage Batch 1 & 2)
Box 5 - Bonus if we raise $5,600 (3F Armand and Tommy + Uli Fruitlambik Pannepot 12oz)

As of now, I'll plan to do the drawing the week of June 1st. I've never posted a video but between now and then I'll figure it out so you can watch the drawing.

 

Additional Rules/Things to know

I should mention, you can only win once. However you get to pick which box you want. So the first winner gets their choice of the box and so on. In order to not spend weeks trying to figure out who will get what boxes, if you don't respond within 24 hours from the time I BM you, I will randomly assign a box to you.

 

Total donated $270 by 12 donors
