New 253 Pilsner Benefits Local Nonprofits

We like our local nonprofits, and we like our local beers, so we were excited to see a new beer from 7 Seas Brewing that comes with the 253 Heart logo on it - and gives a percent of proceeds to local nonprofits.

7 Seas and 253Heart will choose two local nonprofits at any one time, and those organizations will benefit every time one of the new 253 Pilsners is sold, up to $5,000. Once that goal is hit, another local nonprofit will be selected, with an emphasis on smaller organizations where a $5,000 contribution can make a big difference.

What's the beer like?

This NW Pilsner pays homage to those local brewers who came long before us, a shout-out to our home, the 253. Our NW spin on a classic pilsner-style lager. Brewed with NW Pale and Pilsner malt, hopped with Sterling and Cascade, this brew is 100% WA. 

ABV: 5.2% 
IBU's: ~30 
Availablilty: 12oz Cans: 6pk and Case, Limited Draft
