Black is Beautiful

Black is Beautiful is a brilliant, large scale collaboration developed by San Antonio, Texas’ Weathered Souls Brewing Co. The idea is that they developed a high-alcohol stout recipe and made it available to be brewed and modified by breweries worldwide, with three requests: (1) that 100% of the proceeds be donated local organizations that support reforms targeted at police brutality or legal defense funds; (2) that breweries “[c]hoose their own entity to donate to local organizations that support equality and inclusion”; and (3) that a commitment be made to “the long-term work of equality.”

According to the stats on the website, as of September 7, 2020, Black is Beautiful was being made by 1,140 breweries across all 50 states, as well as in 21 countries.

This is a genuinely amazing initiative and one well worth supporting.
