In the absence of normal social gatherings, breweries like Portland’s Hopworks Urban Brewery are taking steps to support your need to stay at home or practice safe social distancing. 

Announced a couple weeks ago, Hopworks has released a variety case called “Homebound Hero 24 Pack”. Within this case are four six-packs of the brands core beers. This included Golden Hammer Organic Lager, Tree Frog Organic Pale Ale, Powell IPA, and Robot Panda Hazy IPA. Selling for $40, each case sold will help Hopworks donate $5 towards the Loopworks Foundation which is producing facemasks for Central City Concern. 

“Here at Hopworks, we’re passionate about using beer as a force for good and this Earth Day we’re excited to focus on the health of people in addition to the planet,” said Christian Ettinger. “What better way to use reclaimed materials than to sew masks for local community members that need them most? We love contributing to this great partnership between purpose driven businesses.”

With a focus on supporting housing health care, and employment services for those experiencing homelessness, in Portland, Loopworks’ non-profit work is needed now more than ever. 

Those wishing to order a case of Homebound Hero 24 Pack, can do so by visiting www.hopworksbeer.com which supports curbside pickup and no-touch delivery, until this Friday.

Besides supporting Loopworks, Hopworks’ core beers are developed as part of the “Salmon-Safe” certification. Besides supporting Salmon-Safe waters, the brewery is a member of B Corporation and their recent releases, Golden Hammer and Tree Frog, were certified USDA organic. 

More on the beers from the mouths of the brewers

Golden Hammer Organic Lager features organic Northwest and German ingredients in a new take on Germany’s most popular beer: the Munich-style Helles. Notes of honey malt aroma and flavor greet herbaceous and floral hops at the castle door. Tree Frog Organic Pale Ale is fueled by organic Fuggle, Citra, and Mosaic hops that jump from branch to branch with juicy, floral notes that deliver the perfect amount of dank hop aroma. Powell IPA is Hopworks’ flagship IPA that celebrates its Powell Blvd. brewery, brimming with melon, tropical fruit, and a perfectly balanced bitterness. Finally, Robot Panda Hazy IPA is fruity and juicy with a fluffy mouthfeel and notes of spruce, tangerine, and papaya derived from Denali, Lemondrop, and Cascade hops.
