year, we teamed up with Seattle artist Lane Bestold for the label (Lane’s medium is quilts) and he wanted us to team up with the Lavender Rights Foundation again to be our beery beneficiary. LRF is a Seattle based organization that offers financial, legal and social services to the black and indigenous intersex and gender diverse community. What’s the Soft Squeeze name about? Well, there’s a splash of white wheat in there to match the softness of Lane’s work, and a juicy, tropical hop bill of Azacca, Mosaic, & Citra. And while “squeeze” has lots of positive connotations (Yummy juice! A fantastic hug!) there is some duality there – as conservatives are putting the squeeze on trans rights across the country. There are currently over 500 bills in 40+ states, including our home state of Washington against the community and there is no better time to stand up for human rights. LFG! -Cloudburst Less
