Tap List | Black is Beautiful Taste Test

July 28, 2020  |  Emily Woodring  |  1 min read

Remember the All Together beer collaboration? Black is Beautiful is another worldwide beer collaboration, this time started by Weathered Souls Brewing Co. in San Antonio, Texas. 

All of the participating breweries are basing their beer off of the same imperial stout recipe, and are encouraged to add their own spin on it. Proceeds from the beer sales will go to a local organization chosen by the brewery that supports police reform or legal assistance for those who have been wronged.

A lot of our local breweries are participating in the collaboration. Cassie Niemeyer, our local beer enthusiast, is taste testing three of them that were released at the time we filmed the attached video.
