Tom Jenkinson, Head Brewer at The Chiltern Brewery said: “Sue worked here for many years and she was a keen member of our team - we keep in regular contact with her.
"When we found out that her granddaughter Sophie has Rett Syndrome and needs some life-changing equipment, there was only once choice for our charity beer this year.”
Managing Direcor George Jenkinson added: “We know that people like to help a great cause when they buy a pint.
