Texas Shiner Brewery Donates To Hurricane Michael Relief Efforts

“As we see the images and hear the accounts of Hurricane Michael and the devastation it left in its wake, all of us in the Shiner family are thinking of and praying for everyone affected by it,”Jimmy Mauric, Shiner’s Brewmaster, said.

The Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, Texas, craft brewer of Shiner Bock, announced today a $50,000 contribution to non-profit organizations to support relief efforts in the Florida Panhandle and South Georgia following Hurricane Michael, a Category 4 hurricane at its peak that made landfall in Florida on Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2018.  

The contribution has been divided equally between two food banks, Feeding the Gulf Coast of Florida and Second Harvest of South Georgia, which are each soliciting donations for areas affected by Hurricane Michael.

Jimmy Mauric, Shiner’s Brewmaster, stated, “As we see the images and hear the accounts of Hurricane Michael and the devastation it left in its wake, all of us in the Shiner family are thinking of and praying for everyone affected by it.”

In the wake of natural disasters similar to Hurricane Michael, the company and its ownership have donated funds to charitable organizations in the most affected areas. Most recently, in September 2018, the brewery contributed to Hurricane Florence relief efforts in North and South Carolina and Virginia.

In 2017, Shiner supported the areas affected by Hurricane Harvey in Texas, Hurricane Irma in Florida, and Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.
