(Nashville, TN) – In the face of adversity, Yazoo Brewing is doing what it can to help its city recover from a natural disaster.

Rainstorms tore through the south early last month. CNN reported that over 30 people were killed across three states with Tennessee being the hardest-hit area. The mayor of Nashville estimated over $1 billion in damage to his city alone. Pics of the destruction can be found over at The Big Picture.

Though it may not make a huge impact in the grand scheme, Nashville-based Yazoo Brewing is going to use a new seasonal release to contribute to the relief effort. Per the blog:

“Our newest seasonal release was about ready to bottle when the floods hit in early May. It seemed that the only thing that matched the scale of the damage was the overwhelming generosity of the people of Nashville in the weeks that followed. We had our own fundraiser for the Community Fund of Middle Tennessee the week after, but we wanted to figure out a way to keep that momentum going throughout the summer.

We decided to donate part of the proceeds from our Summer Ale to flood relief programs. One of the local artists who created one of the great posters for sale at Lift Up Nashville, Derrick Castle, agreed to donate his artwork for the label.

We will be donating 20% of the sales of our Summer Ale to the Community Fund, and our distributor RS Lipman has agreed to match that as well. Look for it in our ‘Brewmaster’s Reserve‘ four-packs in area stores, and also look for special events around town where it is on tap.”

A tweet sent tonight said that bottles are coming soon and that supplies are expected to last through July.
