Seattle WA – June 1, 2011
Cheers, Bottoms Up, Down the Hatch… Men have hundreds of words for drinking, but a very limited language to discuss their health, particularly issues such as prostate cancer. They may know their IPA but do they know their PSA? At Pike Brewing Company on June 16th “Tie One On” is not about drinking. It’s about the blue ribbon, and raising mens’ prostate health awareness.  Timed for Father’s Day, Pike’s Pints For Prostate is a great way to bring families together to combat this all too prevalent disease. Come support a campaign that is reaching millions of men through the universal language of beer. Every pint benefits the cause, so bring your friends and raise a glass to fight prostate cancer.

Pike Brewing Company presents Pints for Prostates, a charitable fundraiser to help fight prostate cancer. The entire day, beginning at 11 a.m., will be dedicated to the Pints for Prostates cause. Twenty percent of the proceeds of every beverage sold that day will be given to the Pints for Prostates campaign and Us TOO International. Highlighting the  day is a special evening event  from 6-9 P.M. in the Museum Room at The Pike Pub.  Representatives from Pints for Prostates, Us TOO International, Cancer Care Alliance, and Dendreon Corporation, who are helping support the event, will be on hand to answer questions about detection, diagnosis and treatment.  Additionally, a silent auction and raffle will  be held during  the evening event. Enter to win a Beer Lover’s Dream Trip: The Pints for Prostates European Beer Tour for two to  the European beer cities of Prague, Bamberg and Munich for Oktoberfest September 9-19, 2011.
