Hurricane Harvey H20 Helpers

8/29/17  “Oskar Blues Brewery and Ball Corporation have teamed up to can and ship 88,800 cans of fresh water to residents devastated by flooding in the Houston area, according to the Longmont-based brewery… Oskar Blues employees will stop canning beer and start canning water for nearly 20 hours at the company’s Longmont location. The deliveries are estimated to arrive in Texas later this week.

Last week, Oskar Blues sent 4,800 cans of water to Denham Springs, La., in anticipation of the hurricane making landfall Friday, the brewery said. The canning project is also in partnership with the CAN’d Aid Foundation, a nonprofit started by Oskar Blues founder Dale Katechis in 2013 following the Colorado flooding that devastated Lyons. According to the brewery, the foundation has shipped a total of 577,000 cans of water to communities in need, such as in Flint, Mich., Louisiana and South Carolina.”

Holiday Weekend Wines+ Free OB-BBQ

August has ended,
The students are back.
The long days summer lended,
Are being asked back.

The fall can produce
Many colors and flavors,
Like fermented grape juice-
That tonight we will savor.

Alas, bring a friend
And we’ll be your host
For this isn’t then end-
To a new season we’ll toast!
