We’re pleased to announce our Engage with Alesong charity partner for the month of March: Pink Boots Society. Alesong on 5th will be hosting a happy hour on March 1st from 5-7pm where a portion of every item sold will be donated to support their mission to assist, inspire, and encourage women and non-binary individuals in the fermented/alcoholic beverage industry through education. Pink Boots members will be on hand, so come out to the happy hour, learn more about what they do and support their cause! zzubreebym
Additionally, throughout the month, 25% of all sales of Alesong’s custom Pink Boots blend, Pink Froots, a tart farmhouse ale with cranberries, will be donated to the organization and, since that beer is only available on draft, Alesong will be donating 25% of sales from bottles of its 4x GABF award winning farmhouse ale, Touch of Brett as well.
“We have a couple of Pink Boots members here at Alesong and this is a natural way to support them” says Alesong Co-founder, Doug Coombs. “Beer has long been dominated by white guys with beards, and although we do have a few of those at Alesong (myself included!), we’d love to see more diversity in this industry.”
ABOUT THE ENGAGE WITH ALESONG PROGRAM: For the Engage with Alesong program, local organizations are nominated and voted on collectively by Alesong staff members to focus support to twelve different causes throughout the calendar year. Alesong will host these organizations for outreach events at their tasting room in the 5th Street Public Market each month and donate a portion of proceeds from a specific beer throughout the whole month to the organization.
ABOUT PINK BOOTS SOCIETY: Pink Boots Society is a leading resource for women fermented beverage professionals that assists, inspires and encourages women industry professionals to pursue their passions through furthering their education and advancing their careers. They focus on building community and breaking down barriers for women in the fermented beverage industry and work with partners to create educational scholarships every year that enable members to follow their passions.
