Connor is an amazing 12 year old boy with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and Autism. Duchenne will put him in a wheelchair between 10-12 and sometime in his twenties it will claim his precious life. The dreaded clock is ticking and before we know it, Connor will be immobile. Modifications are being made to make our home handicap accessible. To donate via GoFundMe: http://www.gofundme.com/drp2yw

Beer! The Crusader's Oktoberfest and Connor's Christmas Concoction

The beer is bottled!
Last week Jon and I brewed beer for Connor's Crusaders and we are bottling next week.  We had a great time (on this very belated 10 year wedding anniversary since May) and even designed our own labels.  Mine came out AWESOME!  The beer Jon chose to brew is Oktoberfest which is a classic stein filler for those looking for a bit more body and flavor (5.5% alcohol per volume).  I chose to brew Pilgrim's Christmas Ale which is a true holiday delight with all the spices of the season in a very hearty brew (7.5% alcohol per volume).

"The Crusader's Oktoberfest":  A good dose of malt, smooth medium body, and a subtle aroma of hops tie it together for this autumn German specialty.  Fill your stein with this one.
Connor's Christmas Concoction

"Connor's Christmas Concoction":  A Mayflower load of extracts and spices combine with a bountiful harvest of grains and hops to make a full bodied, slightly sweet, very spicy holiday brew with an impressive 7.5% alcohol.  Gather your neighbors and friends for this feast . . . they'll be very thankful.

These aren't traditional 6 packs but 22 ounce bottles.  We are giving each 22 ounce bottle for a $10 donation to Connor's Crusaders.  All proceeds will go to Connor's Crusaders Trust Fund to help defray Connor's medical costs.  This is a Trust Fund for Special Needs set up through a lawyer which can only be withdrawn from under very specific circumstances such as medical need, educational need, and van and home modifications to name a few.

We are really excited about this and of course we are doing "virtual beers" for just donations.  You will get a picture of Connor and a thank you from him for these donations.  You can choose to donate through PayPal (link on the left) or check made out to Connor's Crusaders.  Thank you everyone who is interested!!!

Happy New Year!
