A brewery in the USA has started a great programme to sell pints that can be copied anywhere.

Payette Brewery of Boise, Idaho, has launched an online “Buy Your Pal a Pint” scheme, that allows people to virtually send a beer to a friend from the comforts of their home, reports The Beer Connoisseur. The pint can then be enjoyed by their pal at the brewery when life returns to normal.

“Our brewery knows that during times like this, sometimes you just need a beer to help you through it,” said owner Mike Francis. “This idea was sparked by our staff who wanted to continue to pass over a beer to our friends and supporters in our community, and assure them we care during this uneasy time.
