Palmer's Brew for the Brave

About Frenchies on Tap

Hi, I'm Palmer, the patriotic, brew-hopping Frenchie. Every time I strut into a taproom, I hand out my own baseball card and sticker. On the back is one ask: help us support the people who served.

One veteran. One program. $35,000 to change a life. That's what this page is for.

Shepherd's Men supports Shepherd Center's SHARE Military Initiative — a free, comprehensive brain injury rehabilitation program for post-9/11 veterans living with PTSD and traumatic brain injury. The cost to put one veteran or first responder through the full SHARE program is $35,000. I’m raising every dollar of it.

We started Frenchies on Tap because breweries and vets have more in common than people think. They're both about community. Both built on showing up for each other. My little sister Rose and I go brewery to brewery across the Southeast, building those connections one pint at a time, and turning every tap handle into a donation touchpoint.

We've raised $300 so far and now we are getting serious. $35,000 means one veteran gets through the program. That's the goal. Every amount moves us closer.
