Brewers Plan Beer to Support LGBT Groups
READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Two North Carolina craft breweries are making a protest beer in opposition to a North Carolina law affecting lesbian, gay and transgender rights.
Mystery Brewing Company in Hillsborough and Ponysaurus Brewing Company in Durham are leading the effort announced this week. They say 30 other breweries are pledging resources.
They're naming the beer "Don't Be Mean to People, A Golden Rule Saison." It will be made in Durham with North Carolina ingredients and will go on sale in May.
Profits from the beer will be donated to LGBT advocacy groups Equality NC and QORDS.
