Organized by Loftus Ranches and Yakima Chief Hops, Ales for ALS is a project that raises funds for ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis aka Lou Gehrig’s Disease) by donating a proprietary blend of hops to craft brewers in exchange for a portion of the proceeds from their brewery’s Ales for ALS beer. Nearly 100 breweries are participating in this year’s Ales for ALS and the only thing the beers have in common is the special blend of hops created by Loftus Hop Ranches and Yakima Chief Hops. Proceeds from Cigar City Brewing’s Ales for ALS will go directly to fund research to find a cure for ALS.

This year Cigar City Brewing is proud to brew a juicy India Pale Ale brimming with the hop flavors of Eukanot, Simcoe, Loral and experimental hops.
