The project is called the International Women's Collaboration Brew Day and is sponsored by The Pink Boots Society, an international organization whose aim is to "inspire, encourage and empower women beer professionals." The Seattle Chapter of this organization began just two months ago and local women brewers have since hit the ground running, collaborating on several different brew sessions, with profits going to the Pink Boots Society and various other local charities.

be brewed with Willamette hops with an IBU of 50
and ABV of 4.6%.

The project begins with agreed upon parameters for the beer Unite Red Ale. These include the use of Willamette hops with an IBU of 50 and ABV of 4.6%. Beyond that, each brewery is free to use their own creative license and, in the end, each brewery will likely produce dramatically different versions of the same beer. The Unite Red Ale will be ready for release by April so stay tuned for a release party where you will be able to sample the brews created by your local, hard-working beer gals! Brew Sessions this Sunday, March 8th: Hale's Ales Brewery & Pub: 9am - 3pm Pike Brewing Co.: 10am - 4pm Elysian Brewing Co. (Capitol Hill): 11am - 5pm If you are interested in furthering the media coverage for this event, please contact Kelsy@halesbrewery.com or call (503) 952-6711. |
