Bale Breaker Brewing Company, Yakima, Wash., released Brewshed IPA, a limited release that benefits Washington Wild‘s Brewshed Alliance in defending, protecting, and restoring Washington’s wild lands and watersheds.
With that in mind, Brewshed® IPA was brewed with salmon-safe hops from Roy Farms in Moxee, Wash., which are grown with eco-certified farming practices that protect water quality, maintain watershed health, and therefore help to restore endangered salmon habitats.
“Not only does it make us feel warm and fuzzy inside to help protect our watersheds, it’s pertinent to the brewing process to use high-quality, clean water as it’s our most abundant brewing ingredient,” said BBBC Quality Manager Brian Logan. “Higher quality water leads to higher quality beer. We have an obligation not only to our fans but to our environment to keep our watersheds safe – and we take that very seriously here at Bale Breaker.”
The goal of Washington Wild’s Brewshed Alliance is to protect our wild waters – which both allows Pacific salmon to thrive and creates superior downstream beer. To help drive this initiative home to consumers, Bale Breaker has packaged Brewshed IPA into 12oz. 6-packs for fans to enjoy. Kegs will also be available at a handful of bars around Seattle – read BBBC’s blog for a full list of accounts.
