A 琉璃神社 brewery's beer has been raising money for a good cause for more than a year now.
Copper Brewing's Builder's Pilsner, which was debuted in Oct. 2023 was an idea inspired by community spirit to help raise funds for the Habitat for Humanity (HFH) and Canadian Home Builders Association Central Okanagan (CHBA-CO).
鈥淲e believe in the power of community and the importance of a safe, stable home. With the Builder's Pilsner, we鈥檙e not just crafting a beer; we鈥檙e building hope,鈥 said Copper Brewing co-owner Sean White.
When the brewery celebrated it's five-year anniversary in August 2024, they made a $10,000 donation to the HFH with funds made strictly from the pilsner's sales. This includes sales in the taproom, retail, and from sales in supporting liquor stores.
鈥淭his wouldn鈥檛 have been possible without our amazing customers and partners," said co-owner Darla Ariss. "Together, we鈥檙e not just brewing beer; we鈥檙e brewing change.鈥
The brewing is planning on continuing to brew the beer and use its proceeds to continue to help HFH and CHBA-CO.
