Double Shift Brewing and Border Brewing collaborated with New Roots to take local farmer-grown produce from the garden to your glass! Be among the first to try “Stout of This World,” BEER on Saturday, November 30th. The breweries will generously donate $1 to New Roots for every pint of Stout of This World sold. AND, on Small Business Saturday, November 30th, there will be a raffle at both brewery locations! Every pint you purchase will get you a raffle ticket for the possibility of winning a pretty sweet swag bag filled with goodies from both breweries and New Roots.
Inspired by New Roots farmers and the multicultural flavors they bring to the table, this dark ale features classic cold-weather flavors such as pumpkin, sweet potato, and cinnamon, but with an international twist of fresh ginger, hot peppers, and subtle curry notes. The Asian pumpkins, sweet potatoes, fresh ginger, and Thai peppers used in the beer were all grown locally by New Roots farmers!
New Roots, a partnership between Cultivate KC and Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas, is a four-year farming and business training program for immigrants and refugees. In the first year of the program, farmers begin making an income for their families and by their fourth year, they have their own farm business.
Don’t miss this opportunity to support multiple small businesses while drinking great beer! See you Saturday!
