Unrelated, but also worth mentioning (because we’re talking about beer and love trees): Ninkasi have produced a special pale ale to commemorate Friends of Trees’ 25th anniversary, with profits going to the arboreal non profit. Grab a bottle from New Seasons, Zupan’s, or Whole Foods.
Thanks for the 25th Anniversary shout out! We love our new Ninkasi partnership 🙂
