CBS Scene Serving Wormtown Brewing Co. Beer for One Fund Boston Wednesday

The Patriot Place establishment was one of just five locations in the state to tap the 4:09 pale ale Wednesday – the one month anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombings.

CBS Scene is raising money for the One Fund Boston through sales of a rare Wormtown Brewing Co. beer tapped Wednesday to honor the one-month anniversary of the bombings at the Boston Marathon.

The first pour of the beer, 4:09 pale ale from Wormtown Brewing Co., occurred at 4:09 p.m. Wednesday and the first sale came shortly thereafter with 100 percent of the proceeds going to The One Fund.

“This is pretty phenomenal,” said Walpole resident Steve Dion after purchasing the first 4:09 pale ale at CBS Scene. “I just happened to walk into this [fundraiser]. My wife just got a new job so we are out celebrating. … [The beer is] for a great cause and it’s delicious.”

CBS Scene was just one of five locations selected by Quality Beverage to carry the 4:09 pale ale keg from Wormtown Brewing Co.

CBS Scene General Manager Rob Christensen said he expects the special keg to be kicked during Thursday night’s Boston Bruins playoff game against the New York Rangers.

“We will do most of our damage [with this fundraiser] Thursday for the Bruins game,” Christensen said. “[The keg] will probably be gone by the first period.”

And once the 13.2 gallon keg is gone the fundraiser ends and 100 percent of the proceeds will be donated to the One Fund.

The puck drops on Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals at 7:30 p.m.
