#cutforacure

At 6:30PM April 9th at Cigar City Brewing in Tampa, our Owner/Head brewer Jay Dingman, Brewer Lance Shipley and Marketing Director Thomas Barris will be going “bare” for an amazing cause. They will be voluntarily shaving their beards and for some of them even their heads to help bring awareness to Pediatric Cancer and the Pediatric Cancer Foundation.  

“We want these kids and their families to know they are not alone. Count on us to contribute in any way to help get closer to a cure. We will be shaving our beards and heads to bring more awareness to the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. Please join our fight!”
