One Pricey Beer for a Good Cause
Filed under: Auctions, Charity
Samuel Adams Founder Jim Koch and actor Denis Leary have partnered up for a unique auction on eBay to benefit Leary Firefighters, Leary's organization that helps firefighters. The auction includes the first bottle of Samuel Adams Utopias® 2007 Bottle #1, Signed by Jim Koch, along with a Riedel Utopias Snifter Signed by Georg Riedel and a Denis Leary autographed "Rescue Me" coffee table book. The 2007 edition of Utopias, the beer that drinks like a Cognac, is 12,000 ceramic bottles all of which are numbered. Employees of The Boston Beer Company get the first 500 bottles according to their seniority with the Company. Jim Koch is autographing and donating his Number One bottle for this charity fundraiser. The Riedel glass was created after Georg Riedel visited the brewery and created a custom-designed glass designed to bring out the best in the fragrant brew. The auction ends on December 20.
