VICTORIA, BC – Phillips Brewing has announced the winning organization that will receive the proceeds from the brewery’s 2011 Benefit Brew.
Getting the nod via online voting is the Ancient Forest Alliance, an organization working to protect the endangered old-growth forests of BC and to ensure sustainable forestry jobs in the province.
Phillips is now brewing a batch of Ancient Brown Ale which will go on sale in November. It’s expected that sales of the beer will raise between $7000 and $9000 for the Alliance.
