Prancing Pony Brewery, Barossa Valley Brewing and Route 9 Distillery are bringing their brains together to brew a beer to raise money for Ukrainian charities and refugees.
The South Australian trio are brewing their limited edition Red Eye Pale Ale aptly named ‘Puck Futin’, using a recipe from Pravda Beer Theatre, a Ukraine based brewery.
Ukrainian brewery Pravda shared five of their brewing recipes and invited breweries from around the world to brew for the Ukrainian cause.
All proceeds from this project are being donated to charities in aid of humanitarian and medical support in Ukraine and aid for Ukrainian refugees arriving in Australia.
Managing Director of Route 9 Distillery, Rob Watt has a close family connection to the cause and instigated the collaboration.
“My wife, Natalie, and her family are from Ukraine, and we are very connected to the Ukrainian community in Adelaide. We couldn’t live with feeling helpless, as we watch the devastation being wreaked on this country.
CEO of Prancing Pony Brewery, Corinna Steeb, together with her husband Frank, migrated from Europe. The invasion reminds Corinna of the Cold War days.
“This time, instead of communism, the ideological battle lines are between the democracies of the world and autocracies and dictatorship,” says Corinna.
“The beer is aptly named ‘Puck Futin’ from Pravda’s Victory Beer Series, and is collaboratively brewed between Barossa Valley Brewing, Route 9 Distillery, and Prancing Pony Brewery.
Buy this brew for a cause as this fiesta American Red Ale will grace you with its grassy citrus aromas and flavours from Columbus and Cascade hops.
‘Puck Futin’ will be available for pre-sales in South Australia from Prancing Pony Brewery, Barossa Valley Brewing, and Route 9 Distillery.
