Ales for ALS Homebrew Tasting

Brooklyn, NY - Bitter & Esters homebrew supply shop is proud to be participating in Ales for ALS, a collaboration between Loftus Ranches, Hopunion, and homebrewers around the country who get to try a new experimental hop and fund research for ALS at the same time. Loftus Ranches and Hopunion have offered up HBC 438 to homebrewers with the explicit request that they get feedback from homebrewers on how it works in their brews.

Bitter & Esters has commissioned eight homebrewers to brew eight different styles of beer with HBC 438:

Saison
Pale Ale
Belgian IPA
Imperial Red Ale
American Brown Ale
English Brown Ale
English Special Bitter

Bitter & Esters will have a tasting of all of the beers brewed on October 29th, 2015 at 6:30pm at their shop in Prospect Heights. This will be a free event with a suggested donation of $10 with all proceeds going to Ales for ALS.
