Launched by Weathered Souls Brewing in San Antonio, Black is Beautiful is more than just a beer—it’s “a collaborative effort to raise awareness of the injustices people of color experience daily and raise funds for police reforms and legal defenses for those who have been wronged,” according to the Texas brewery. More than 1,000 breweries across all 50 states and 20 countries have brewed their own spin on Black is Beautiful so far.

Dixie Brewing Co. will be donating 100 % of the proceeds of this Imperial Stout to Operation Restoration, which provides bail funds for New Orleanians who cannot afford it. Our version amps up the hops and bitterness to complement the rich, roasted malt character.

But as delicious as this beer is, our commitment to the cause goes beyond brewing. We pledge to continue to be actively anti-racist and continuously work to be allies and advocates for those who face injustices in our community. We will not stop at this important campaign, and we will do our part to ensure our community is one in which there is truly liberty and justice for all.
