Launching, Friday June 5th at True North Ale Company, 116 County Road, Ipswich!

Greenbelt Pilsner, a limited-edition collaboration between the NextGen Committee and True North Ales, brewed to bring people together around land conservation, the outdoors and community.

Special June 5th Launch Night features:

• Specialty pours (+$5) in a custom pint glass featuring Greenbelt Pilsner label artwork
• Hang out with Greenbelt staff and NextGen members on the north side of the brewery from 5 - 7 PM. Stop by, say hello, and celebrate together!
• A portion of the proceeds from all pints, specialty pours and can sales will support Greenbelt throughout the entire run of the beer.

This crisp German-style craft beer is brewed with locally harvested wildflower honey and features a custom-designed label honoring the region's natural beauty. Every pint poured and every can sold helps support local land conservation efforts. While supplies last, Greenbelt Pilsner available on tap and to take home, in four packs featuring custom-designed labels.

Greenbelt's NextGen Committee leads this initiative to develop the next generation of open space advocates and land stewards. Committee members are invited to a one-year term, with the option to renew, and actively engage with Greenbelt's mission by attending regular meetings, organizing NextGen events, staying up to date on Greenbelt's programs and projects, and sharing conservation information within their networks. Members also support Greenbelt through volunteerism, donations, and community engagement efforts.
