Sometimes the quickest disaster relief starts with a pint. More than two dozen bars, breweries and restaurants across western Washington have joined forces to collect non-perishable food, hygiene supplies and pet food for families affected by the devastating Spokane wildfires, with Stoup Brewing and the Washington Brewers Guild leading the effort. Donations will be accepted through Wednesday before being delivered to eastern Washington, an initiative inspired by brewery co-owner Robin Schumacher, whose childhood neighborhood was damaged by the fires and whose family is now under evacuation alerts. When a community comes together, even a local brewery can become a lifeline.
