6 Brewers 1 Beer to Benefit Out of Work Hospitality Workers

SARATOGA SPRINGS — We are Brewnited, a collective of local brewers focused on giving back to our community. Our mission is to raise funds for our hospitality industry partners the best way we know how:  with a beer.

“Shortly after restrictions were put in place, I, out of habit, decided to head out for a beer. Quickly realizing I couldn’t, my brain filled with all of the bar and restaurant workers I know who are suddenly out of work with no income.  I remember thinking, ‘how can I help, even some of these guys?’… The next day at work I reached out to other local brewers, who, like me, owe our livelihoods to bars and restaurants that have supported our brands for so long. From this came the idea of a virtual collaboration beer where we could donate all proceeds directly to hospitality workers while creating a platform for other community members to contribute, knowing funds will be distributed locally,”  said Max Oswald of Northway Brewing Company.

Adirondack Brewery, Artisanal Brew Works, Bolton Landing Brewing Co., Common Roots Brewing Co., Druthers Brewing Co., and Northway Brewing Co. have collaborated to bring you Negative Input, an American Lager that represents our unity in these challenging times. We are working together to take the negative input that we are overwhelmed with and flip it upside-down to get a positive outcome.

All profits from the sale of these 4-Packs will be distributed to hospitality workers in Saratoga and Warren counties who are out of work due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
