Beaus published a press release that was very careful to point out that none of the profits from the Rwandan brewery will go back to Beau’s or to the other partners. Beau’s co-founder Steve Beauchesne stated that they have “always done what they can to help other craft breweries, be it lending supplies and equipment, or looking over business plans. This project is significantly more involved, but it’s rooted in the same principles of being open and willing to help.” The Kickstarter only has 4 days left to donate and depending on how much you donate you can get some really cool stuff such as private tours at the Beaus brewery, access to the Beaus graphic designer, merchandise and much more. To learn more about the story and the Kickstarter visit the Beaus website and help support this great initiative!
