The Anderson Valley Brewing Company has teamed up with the Surfrider Foundation, a non-profit environmental organization, to brew a deliciously light-bodied ale that doesn't merely offer a satisfying drinking experience but also supports the important cause of coastal sustainability.
The 'Coastal Ale' is a light-bodied ale that makes use of Citra, Mosaic and Eukuanot hops and relies on pilsner and wheat malts. The brew offers hints of tropical fruit followed by a crisply satisfying finish. This beer comes in at 4.5 percent ABV, but the more important percentage here is the 5 percent of gross profits that the Anderson Valley Brewing Company has committed to donate to the Surfrider Foundation.
The Anderson Valley Brewing Company has already solidified its own eco-friendly credentials thanks to its status as the world's first solar-powered brewery, which is why the brewery's move to partner up with an environmental non-profit organization is a laudable yet unsurprising move.
