A National Toast to the Memory of Michael Jackson, Beer Hunter September 30, 2007

Rogue’s relationship with Michael Jackson, The Beer Hunter, has been as interesting, fun, and strong as the flavor of the well-made craft brew he championed so well.
Michael visited the Rogue locations repeatedly over the years, and we always looked forward to his stories and insights regarding our creations and beer in general.
Michael educated the world about the virtues of beer, and his passion for great beer was a driving force in the craft beer revolution. All of us who love beer owe this cultural icon a debt of gratitude, may “The Beer Hunter’s” spirit live on in every pint we ponder and enjoy.

Please join us in commemorating the life of this great man and raising public awareness and money for the Parkinson’s Foundation. Rogue Pubs will join other craft brewers and beer enthusiasts nationwide and around the world in a united toast; we’ll lift a pint of the craft beer he loved in tribute. “Here’s to Michael Jackson, Cheers!”

"A ceremonial contribution on behalf of all the participating bars, restaurants and brewpubs will be made at the Great American Beer Festival on Saturday, October 13. See www.beertown.com for GABF information and tickets."
