Rockville, Maryland-based 7 Locks Brewing’s latest collaboration beer has a personal meaning for owner Jim Beeman: Helping his sister balance finances and family while batting cancer.
The brewery and five others have collaborated on Deena’s Defiance, a pale ale being released on Mother’s Day, May 9, with proceeds intended for Beeman’s sister, Deena Ruiter.
Proceeds will be donated to Ruiter’s GoFundMe campaign.
Ruiter, 38, was diagnosed with Stage 4 brain cancer while 20 weeks pregnant, the day after her daughter’s 4th birthday.
