List of NJ Breweries Making Resilience IPA By Sierra Nevada

If the heartbreak of natural disasters drives you to drink, now you can do just that while supporting recovery efforts at the same time.

In the wake of the horrific devastation in California thanks to the Camp Fire, officially the most destructive fire in the state’s history, Sierra Nevada Brewing Company is releasing an IPA in support of relief efforts.

Sierra Nevada’s founder Ken Grossman said in a statement, “we are proud to announce the upcoming release of Resilience Butte County Proud IPA. We will be brewing Resilience on Giving Tuesday, November 27 and donating 100 percent of the beer sales to the Camp Fire Relief Fund.”

But they didn’t stop there. The brewery also offered the Resilience IPA recipe to any brewery in America that wanted it if they would donate the beer’s sales to the relief fund as well.

“We are working with malt, hop and yeast suppliers to provide raw ingredient donations to all participating breweries...and are asking those breweries to donate 100 percent of their sales to the fund, as well,” Grossman said. “Our hope is to get Resilience IPA in taprooms all over the country to create a solid start for our community’s future.”

The second I heard the news, I knew I had to get my hands on a pint or can. According to Paste Magazine, over 1200 brewers have joined the effort — here’s a list of NJ breweries making Resilience IPA.
