READ THE WHOLE THING ESPECIALLY MY BOURBON FANS. THIS IS ONE SPECIAL BOTTLE OF MAKER'S.
Hello Fam, I want to introduce you to Beckham Troutman. Beckham is battling Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) which is a spinal cancer that is not curable. I know his parents and they are wonderful people. We are holding a fundraiser on APRIL 16TH AT FRANKFORT AVENUE LIQUORS located at 2115 Frankfort Ave, Louisville KY 40206 at 7pm. There will be a special cocktail called "The Tribal Kid" in honor of Beckham's nickname accompanied with live music and a table hosted by Maker's Mark. Beckham is a brave 7-year old battling this cancer. He was diagnosed on August 1st, 2023.
The funds raised will provide crucial financial assistance to Beckham's family, allowing his mother to dedicate her time to his care and ensuring that Beckham can experience cherished moments with his loved ones. From visits to Universal Studios to meeting his favorite WWE wrestlers, Beckham's family is striving to create lasting memories during this difficult time.
At the heart of the event is a special SINGLE BARREL PICK with MAKER'S MARK, named "THE TRIBAL KID" in honor of Beckham's nickname bestowed upon him when his favorite WWE wrestler Jimmy ISO talked with him and said that he was now a member of their tribe.
FRANKFORT AVENUE LIQUORS (FAL) IS GRACIOUSLY DONATING 10% OF THE BAR PROCEEDS FROM THE EVENING TO BECKHAM'S FAMILY. ALL BOTTLE PROCEEDS FROM THE MAKER'S BARREL WILL ALSO BE DONATED.
This is a special bottle that I was honored to help pick. Some of the finest palates in Louisville such as Philip Clark (Average Joe Bourbon ) were used when creating this special barrel. I must say this will be an EXCELLENT Barrel. I believe the bottles will sell for $78.99 and they are asking for a donation as well if possible. This bottle is one of the finest I had ever had the pleasure of being a part of.
Special thanks to Philip Clark (Average Joe Bourbon), Bill Derham (FAL), Heidi Varns with Beckham's organization "The Cure Starts Now".
To my friends and family, if you can make this event please do. Please pick up a bottle because you won't be disappointed. You know how we do Barrel picks.
