The new beer is Ice Bucket IPA, a cold IPA brewed with the 2026 Ales for ALS custom hop blend from Yakima Chief Hops, featuring Simcoe, Citra, Ekuanot, and Columbus hops. It will be pouring from 1 to 5pm on Saturday, with $1 from every pint sold benefitting the fundraiser.<\/p>\n
\nCraft beer enthusiasts and philanthropists alike are invited to Calapooia Brewing for the Ales for ALS Beer Release Party, a celebration of community spirit and charity, set for Saturday, July 25, 2026, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at 140 Hill St. NE Albany, Ore. 97321. Now in its fifth year, this event is a part of the Ales for ALS\u2122 fundraising program, which supports the ALS Therapy Development Institute in their efforts to combat Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).<\/p>\n
The Ales for ALS\u2122 program brings breweries and beer enthusiasts together from around the world to fight against ALS. Participating breweries receive access to an industry-curated hop blend to craft unique beers, donating a portion of the proceeds to ALS research. The 2026 blend, highlighted in the upcoming beer release by Calapooia Brewing, exemplifies this collaborative effort.<\/p>\n
Attendees have the opportunity to be among the first to sample the specially crafted Ice Bucket IPA, a Cold IPA from Calapooia Brewing that features the unique 2026 Ales for ALS\u2122 hop blend with vibrant citrus and floral notes with a berry, tropical, woody and stone fruit flavor.<\/p>\n
In addition to supporting a great cause through craft beer, event attendees may partake in a variety of activities, including a raffle fundraiser sponsored by generous local businesses. Raffle tickets will be available at the event for $3 each or $5 for two, with winners announced at the end of the evening. Participants need not be present to win. The outdoor event will also feature a dunk tank, allowing attendees to test their aim on local volunteers and brewery employees; three throws cost $5, with all proceeds going directly to the ALS Therapy Development Institute.<\/p>\n
This free event is open to all ages and is both family and pet-friendly. Guests can enjoy a wide selection of craft beers, Vivacity Spirits cocktails, mocktails, house-made soda and delicious dishes from the brewpub while enjoying a memorable day dedicated to a noble cause.
