IN KARL’S NAME
Karl Strauss Brewing Company set up the Karl Strauss Brewers Education Fund with the Jewish Community Foundation of San Diego to honor Karl and the teaching, guidance, and support he gave to the many brewers and breweries he came into contact with throughout his life. The Fund is to provide financial educational support to aspiring brewers pursuing a career in the field of brewing.
Who is eligible? How to apply?
We are currently working with a few respected learning institutions in the field of brewing science, exploring their classes and scholarship programs. We are building up the corpus of the fund and will soon be selecting the right annual scholarship program that will best uphold the intention of the fund. Stay tuned.
Karl Strauss Brewing Company raises money for the fund annually at Karlfest and this past year, in Karl’s honor we brewed an Imperial Amber Lager – a new take on Karl’s favorite beer. Proceeds from each glass of the Karl Strauss Imperial Amber Lager sold in our Brewery Restaurants in October were donated to the fund.
If you are interested in expressing support, contributions may be sent here to the brewery or directly to the Jewish Community Foundation of San Diego, with a notation on the check for the Karl Strauss Brewers Education Fund. Donations are tax deductible. Thank you for your support.
