One Man 'Beer Tour' to Fight Cancer Heading to Rolf's Saturday

A 351-beer effort.

One man is helping to fight cancer, one beer at a time.

He's visited dozens of towns already. And on Saturday at 4 p.m., he'll be at Rolf's in North Andover. It won't be easy visiting 351 places, but the beer might make it less stressful. So head down to Rolf's Saturday and wish him luck. You can check his progress at http://351beers.tumblr.com/ or on his Facebook page. You can also follow him on Twitter.
