Over the past seven years, breweries from around the world have joined the Ales for ALS^™ program, fighting to #EndALS by crafting great beers. Once accepted into the program, Ales for ALS^™ brewers receive their requested amount of the unique hop blend, created and donated annually by Loftus Ranches and YCH Hops exclusively for brewers participating in this fundraising program. There is no charge to brewers for this amazing hop blend. Ales for ALS^™ brewers donate $1 to the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI) for each pint of the resulting Ales for ALS^™ brew sold. The funds raised are spent in the lab immediately as they continue to discover and develop potential treatments for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Initial invitations have been sent out for the 2020 Ales for ALS^™ season. If you would like to inquire about your brewery or a brewery near you receiving an invitation, click here.

ABOUT ALS

Every 90 minutes, someone is diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease or motor neuron disease (MND). ALS is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease that causes muscle weakness, difficulty breathing and swallowing, and eventually paralysis while leaving the senses intact. Most people live two to five years after their diagnosis, with an estimated 30,000 people in the US and 450,000 worldwide living with the disease. Currently, there are no effective treatments or cures.
