Cape May Brewing Co. in Cape May, New Jersey has announced the third year of its collaboration with Double Nickel Brewing Co. and multiple other breweries on a "potluck-style" IPA. Full details are below.
A “potluck-style IPA” called Friends Giving, the initiative has raised more than $200,000 over the past two years.
“Friends Giving is our way of turning a little creativity, camaraderie, community, and collaboration into support for families struggling to put food on the table,” says John Dalsey, Marketing Director at Double Nickel.
Originally conceived and founded by Double Nickel Brewing Company of Pennsauken, NJ, in 2018, the original breweries of Cape May Brewing Company (Cape May, NJ), Tonewood Brewing Company (Oaklyn, NJ), and Urban Village Brewing Company (Philadelphia, PA) are joined in this annual initiative by newly added Source Farmhouse Brewery (Colts Neck, NJ), as well as four Northern Virginia breweries: Solace Brewing Company (Sterling, VA), Ocelot Brewing Company (Dulles, VA), Old Ox Brewery (Ashburn, VA), and Crooked Run Brewing (Sterling, VA).
Considering the current global pandemic, the original breweries had been concerned that they may not have been able to undertake the annual initiative this year. However, they quickly realized that the current situation made it that much more important.
