In the spirit of community and charity, Dry Lake Brewing stepped up at the 18th Annual Sunflower Diversified Services Charity Gala. They offered a "Brew with a Brewmaster" package, which granted an experience to not only brew a beer but to leave a personal stamp by naming it and taking home a growler of their very own creation.
This donation contributed significantly to the largest fundraiser of the year for Sunflower Diversified Services, Inc. Sunflower Diversified Services is committed to advocating for, supporting, and teaching individuals with developmental and intellectual delays and/or disabilities. The annual gala is not just a fundraiser; it's a vital part of ensuring that the day-to-day needs of children and adults with disabilities are met, especially when they are not covered by insurance.
“We are so grateful to Dry Lake Brewing with all of the support they have given Sunflower Diversified, from even before they opened their doors until now, they have been so amazing to work with and have given us so many opportunities to fundraise for this great organization," said Cody Harris, Director of Planned Giving and Community Support.
When asked about their motivation to bid on the "Brew with Dry Lake" package, Joe and Montara shared that their appreciation for Dry Lake Brewing's craft and their commitment to the community were the perfect pairing.
Landing on brewing a Fruited Hazy IPA was a compromise between Joe's preference for a robust IPA and Montara’s fondness for a fruity flavor profile.
“The brewing experience was incredible," said Montara Pfannenstiel. "We learned so much about all that goes into creating a good brew. We definitely have a next level appreciation for each beer we drink at Dry Lake, knowing all of the time, care, and science that goes into it.”
The final product, affectionately named "Pfanny Pack," is a Mango Passion Fruit Smoothie IPA.
Dry Lake Brewing has pledged to donate a portion of the sales from "Pfanny Pack" back to Sunflower Diversified Services. Pfanny Pack Mango Passion Fruit Smoothie IPA released Thursday, April 25 and is available while supplies last.
