About Karbach Brewing Co.
We like beer. A lot. Our background is in the beer biz. Everything from distribution and importing to German training and brewery operations. A few years ago we had an opportunity that would allow us to open up our own brewery. We jumped on it. We’re extremely excited about this brewery, and we think it shows in everything we do. This is just plain fun for us. The day it starts to feel like a job is the day when lightning shall strike us dead. Cause, hey, at the end of the day we’re making beer. And beer is fun.
About Robert Garner Firefighter Foundation
On May 31 2024, four of Houston’s bravest firefighters made the ultimate sacrifice when they perished in a tragic motel fire. Robert Garner was one of four firefighters that gave his life that day, and a group of Houston Firefighters and his family created the Robert Garner Firefighter Foundation in his honor. The RGFF is an educational charity with a mission of promoting and encouraging young people to become public servants. Ensuring those men and women who are brave enough to step in the line of danger, get the mentoring, education, and training they need, without worrying about cost.
