While most of the most well-known names in beer are men (e.g., Adolphus Busch, Sam Adams, John Labatt), there is a growing group of female brewers who are giving the guys a run for their suds.

Recently, the folks at 21st Amendment Brewery collaborated with the folks at Pink Boots Society to create Moon Boots IPA, a new beer that is brewed with pilsner malts, toasted rice, and strawberries and the Pink Boots hop blend and that features otherworldly can art by noted animator Robin Eisenberg whose work celebrates sexuality the diversity and power of women.

Based in St. Paul, Pink Boots is dedicated to helping women in the alcoholic beverage industry advance their careers through education. In addition to launching the new beer, the team behind Moon Boots IPA also created new scholarships on the eCornell platform that will help women make more and better beer and expand the beverage industry for women.

Having started out as a small-batch brew that was born on International Women’s Day in early March of 2019 and was originally only available at the 21stAmendement brewery in San Francisco, Moon Boots IPA is now available for a limited time in all 33 states where 21stAmendment is distributed, giving more people an opportubity to try it and to support women in the bveverage business.
