Uncle Bear’s to honor late Scottsdale firefighter with beer release Saturday

🍺 Uncle Bear’s Brewery in Gilbert will host a special tapping of ‘‘Kory’s Kolsch,’’ a beer brewed in honor of late Captain Kory Yule of the Scottsdale Fire Department, at 2 p.m. Saturday.

The history: The 42-year-old Yule died in January from multiple myeloma, a type of bone marrow cancer. Firefighters are known to be at higher risk of the cancer due to the hazardous chemicals they encounter.

For a good cause: Family, friends, and colleagues of Yule gathered at the brewery last month to brew the beer. A portion of the proceeds is being donated to Yule’s family.
