"May the roof above us never fall in. And may the friends gathered below it never fall out." - Irish Blessing

We have spearheaded this initiative by leading a team of ten other local breweries, Crosby Hops, and LD Carlson to brew Black Is Beautiful. Black Is Beautiful is a 10% Imperial Stout that was designed by WSBC to be a moderately high abv. stout to showcase the different shades of black. Not only will we be donating 100% of proceeds to the ACLU of NC, but we are also making the commitment to the long-term work of equality. Highest praises to everyone over at WSBC, out of Texas, for inspiring us and taking the lead.
