They brewed for a great cause, now it's our turn to drink for the same - Resilience IPA for Butte County, California

Earlier this month, I tracked down nearly 30 SEPA, NJ, and Del. breweries that reportedly were taking part in the nationwide call to charitable brewing. Plenty more came on board since then.

It was the Sierra Nevada-led project for the devastating Camp Fire near Chico, Calif. Here's the background story and here's an updated story from Sierra Nevada.

Following are those area breweries that I could find a release party/fundraising event tied to the release of their respective Resilience IPA. If you know of one that I missed, please feel free to drop a note to me, or respond in the comments with details. I'll keep this updated over the next couple of days so it can serve as the most complete list possible in the region.

I think it's safe to say that the beer brewing industry has never seen an undertaking such as this. What a project; cheers!
