The Big Pour's Own brew
Every year, Scott Smith of East End Brewing Company, brews up a special beer for the Steel City Big Pour and this year is, of course, no exception.
More will be coming soon...
Last Year's Brew -- Rachel Carson's Eye Opener
The idea for this special beer was originally hatched at the Rachel Carson Sustainable Feast (the big street fest they put on every year) over a couple cups of LaPrima's "Rachel Carson Blend" iced coffee and some East End Beer.
It soon became obvious that a coffee infused beer bearing her name would be the perfect fit for the 2009 Big Pour Brew.
So, "RACHEL CARSON'S EYE OPENER" was brewed as a nice BIG Porter, infused with 30 POUNDS of fair trade, organic, locally roasted, carefully cold-brewed Rachel Carson Blend coffee beans. (Get it? "Eye Opener"...Coffee? Enlightenment?)
This coffee is a regular offering from LaPrima, and a portion of the proceeds from every pound sold benefit the Rachel Carson Homestead.
