Homefront IPA was created in 2011 by craft brewers with one goal in mind: to honor and support the men and women of America's Armed Forces. Homefront IPA is aged on maple Louisville Slugger™ bats, and brewed with donated hops from Yakima's Puterbaugh Farms. Released every year around Memorial Day, 2016's Homefront IPA Team is: 21st Amendment, Center of the Universe, Cigar City, Fremont, Maui, and Stone Brewing. All proceeds from the sale of Homefront IPA are donated to military-based charities.
