A new IPA from the makers of Sip of Sunshine will give back locally
WAITSFIELD, VT – Get ready to shift your go-to IPA! The sunshine-makers at Lawson’s Finest Liquids just released Cosmic Shift IPA (6.2% ABV). Through the B Corp Certified brewery’s Social Impact Program, this otherworldly IPA is a Good Brew for Cause, meaning a portion of the proceeds from every can sold in Massachusetts will benefit Spoonfuls, with a release party to be held at TEMPO in the Bakbar (474 Moody Street) in Waltham, Massachusetts 6-9 pm on July 17.
Prepare to be starstruck by Cosmic Shift IPA, a juicy, hop-forward new brew from Lawson’s Finest Liquids, the makers of Sip of Sunshine. Pour mindfully, inhale deeply, and blast off into an out-of-this-world IPA experience.
“Cosmic Shift is something truly special,” said Adeline Druart, CEO of Lawson’s Finest Liquids. “It captures everything we love about hops–bold, juicy, expressive flavor and aroma–and channels it into something even bigger. Through our Social Impact Program, every sip of Cosmic Shift helps support vibrant communities and meaningful causes throughout the Northeast. That’s what makes this beer so out-of-this-world.”
Cosmic Shift IPA will benefit Spoonfuls, a food recovery organization that prevents over 5 million pounds of good food from going to waste each year, distributing to over 200+ food programs, such as pantries, serving people facing food insecurity across Massachusetts.
“As a nonprofit organization, we rely entirely on philanthropic contributions,” said Martha Buckley, Director, Corporate & Foundation Relations, at Spoonfuls. “With every $1 we receive, our team is able to recover and distribute a pound of food. This support from Lawson’s Finest and its patrons is particularly meaningful. It’s exactly this kind of generosity that enables us to meet our food recovery and hunger relief mission.”
Donations made by Lawson’s Finest Liquids to Spoonfuls will be matched by Atlantic Beverage Distributors, the local beer distributor of Lawson’s Finest brews.
