Hey everyone, just a quick thing before we get to the show.

We're very, very thankful for all of your donations that we received to help us to get to

the Great American Beer Festival in October.

Now we're not quite at our goal yet, but we would still like to give a little bit back

to our listeners who have donated.

And maybe this will sweeten the deal for folks who have yet to donate.

We've put together two very special gift packs that we'll be giving away.

One each to two lucky donators.

We're going to draw names out of a hat to pick the two people these things go to.

The first one is a basic gift pack for donators of any amount up to $49.99 total.

Now if that's you, your name's going to be put into a hat

with a bunch of other people who have done the same thing. And here's what you might get.

One person's going to get a five beer sampler picked specifically for you by us. We're going to

select beers based on your particular taste preferences from breweries that maybe you won't be able to get easily in your area.

We're also going to throw in a beerist's taster glass for you to drink them out of.

Sound pretty cool, right?

Well, here's the Elite Gift Pack.

Now, these are for people who have donated $50 and above total.

By total, I mean, if you've sent three or four donations and equal to over $50, you're

going to be in the running for this special gift pack.

This is going to include a six beer sampler, not a five, like the other one.

You're also going to get two beerists taster glasses, not just one, but you'll get two
