Collaboration brewing for a good cause.
The BC Beer Awards officially announced this year�s 2022 collaboration brew � Back In Session, a blackberry lemon salted sour which balances a tart acidity along with a hint of sea salt.
Once again, the team partnered with their good pals at�BREWHALL�and��Powell Brewery�to brew this year�s collaboration beer. This 4% salted sour is refreshing, bright and loaded with juicy blackberry and lemon.�
The name �Back In Session� helps to celebrate life going back to a level of normal that we�re used to. Get those books, binders and beers ready for another year, because the BC Beer Awards is Back In Session!�
The theme fits with the BCBA�s committment to supporting the next generation of changemakers in our province�s beer community through our support of�Diversity In Brewing. DIB is an initiative that works to improve visibility and inclusivity in the craft beer industry by providing scholarships for self-identifying BIPOC & LGBTQ2S+ students at Kwantlen Polytechnic University�s brewing program.
This year�s collab beer proceeds will also help to support the�BC Hospitality Foundation�� �A charity that raises funds to support those in the hospitality industry facing financial crisis due to a health condition. If the pandemic has taught us anything, it�s that the hospitality industry definitely took a hit, and they want to give back.�
Back In Session was brewed at�Powell Brewery�with the generous help of sponsors,�Altro Labels,�Brewers Supply Group,�Hops Connect�Canada,�Imperial Yeast,�Keg Share�&�Vessel Packaging Co. The label art was created by�Michelle Lee at Broadview Creative.
