Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: First Sip Brew Box today announced the collaboration they are facilitating with Hearth, specifically their Hops For Hearth Beerfest event and Lincoln Avenue Brewery located in Bellevue a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This beer collaboration is the first of its kind to build awareness around the good work done at Hearth located in Glenshaw Pennsylvania. Hearth’s mission is to provide a range of supportive services and housing that empowers homeless families, who are survivors of domestic violence or other trauma to become independent, self-sufficient, and adequately housed; to foster low income housing opportunities to prevent homelessness and encourage safe, affordable housing. We are excited to put this collaboration together with Hearth and Lincoln Avenue Brewery using Pittsburgh’s craft beer industry as a catalyst for helping the community.
This collaboration beer will be exclusively at the Hops For Hearth Beerfest on Friday, March 20th, 2020 located at Nova Place on the North Side for craft beer drinkers to experience. A select few of Pittsburgh’s libations spots will have this brew on draft. First Sip Brew Box’s vision is also to connect with local artists to create visual works to showcase the internal struggle we all have communicating with each other around topics like domestic violence. The works of art will be auctioned off at the Hops for Hearth event to help raise funds for the nonprofit.
CNC (Custom ‘N Craft) Malting Co. is a craft local malt house located north of Pittsburgh in Butler County has agreed to donate malt needed to brew this collaboration beer.
This Collaboration will be featured in a First Sip Brew Box filled will exclusive merchandise commemorating the collaboration and the event.
“The best friend of a small business is another small business,” says Dennis Guy, CEO at First Sip Brew Box.
“This collaboration is yet another example of how craft beer is a pillar of the community and goes beyond just good beer.” says Dennis Guy, CEO at First Sip Brew Box.
*The beer style, name and brew date are TBD and will announced in the coming weeks.
