This philanthropic seasonal was inspired by a Turtles favorite treat – blackberries. It turns out that brewers love blackberries as much as their reptilian cohorts. The strong malt and hop body of this altbier mixes well with the flavor of the blackberries for an excellent fall time treat. We’re brewing this beer to bring awareness to the plight of land based turtles and tortoises and the wonderful organization that leads this good fight – the Turtle Survival Alliance. Martin House will be making a donation to these fine folks, and we hope to recruit you, our faithful beer drinking customers, to become involved as well.
