Bismark, North Dakota, Brewery Launches LGBT Beer For Pride
A Bismarck brewery has launched a new beer in honor of North Dakota Capital Pride.
Laughing Sun Brewing Co. brewed 120 gallons of Black Cherry Fairy Ale, created especially to celebrate the Peace Garden State's LGBT community.
Brew masters Todd Sattler and Mike Frohlich used locally sourced sand cherries to give the ale a deep red color and tartness.
“These fruits work great for summertime beers,” Sattler told the Bismarck Tribune. “It’s light-bodied and it finished nice and clear.”
A local LGBT group, Dakota OutRight, helped come up with the name. “It was just to have something fun to do,” said board member Erin Pringle, who credits Laughing Sun with being a real ally.
The popular potable was served at Pride in the Park yesterday, and is on on tap at Laughing Sun, until supplies run out.
