Mutineers, Jordan Winery Stand Up for Water Relief Introducing the Blue Carpet Fundraiser Dinner for Water Relief
What do you get when you bring together a star-studded cast of Hollywood comedians, vintage spirits, wines and cigars, spectacular auction lots and a lavish three-course meal at Healdsburg’s Jordan Vineyard & Winery? Naturally, you get the Blue Carpet Fundraiser Dinner (Friday, December 10, 2010) benefiting clean drinking water for children in Nepal, brought to you by a partnership between the second-generation winery and Mutineer Magazine.
Oh, and you also get a dashing special guest in one Jonathan Goldsmith—popularly known for his portrayal of “The World’s Most Interesting Man” in Dos Equis ads, a paparazzi-worthy blue carpet entry (blue in honor of water relief, natch) and a guest comedian at each table – to ensure dinner guests are never at a loss for laughs.

At Mutineer, we take water very seriously. Whether it be through our charity partner A Child’s Right providing clean drinking water to children in underdeveloped regions, having clean water to brew our favorite beers such as Mutinous Battle Chai, or the conservation of rivers flowing through our most magnificent ecosystems, clean water is something that we strongly support … and it looks like we’re not alone.
Laurelwood Brewing Co., Portland’s first certified organic brewery, has signed a three-year contract with Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) to support its Water Restoration Certificate program.
