Amherst Brewing x Massachusetts Athletics

Proudly introducing Massachusetts Lager, a crushable lager brewed with local Valley Malt Pilsner and lightly dry-hopped with mosaic, 4.5%abv.

‍

At Amherst Brewing, we pride ourselves of being advocates for supporting local. From using locally sourced ingredients to collaborating with our neighbors, we're always looking for new and fun ways to involve our community. With our new taproom open and the holiday season around the corner, we thought this would be a great opportunity to bring artists together for a day of shopping, sipping, and supporting one another.

We're excited to partner with Soldier On again this year and offer a new batch of Charlie Mike, Charlie Mike V.

$1 from every pint sold of Charlie Mike will be donated directly to Soldier On, a local non-profit organization founded in 1994 that works to put an end to Veteran homelessness. Read more about what they do here: https://www.wesoldieron.org/what-we-do-2/
