THE STORY:
Each year, Yakima Chief Hops collaborates with military veteran brewers, and partners with a different nonprofit organization that supports various aspects of the veteran community.

Able Ebenezer Brewing Company is veteran owned and operated, and is proud to brew this beer in honor of New Hampshire veterans.
THE LABEL:
In 2017, the commander of Able Company of the 1-169th AVN in the New Hampshire Army National Guard approached the founders of Able Ebenezer - both former Army officers - to use the Able Ebenezer logo on the unit flight patch. A variation of this unit flight patch is prominently displayed on the Veterans Blend label, while the Able Ebenezer logo appears on the Black Hawk helicopters of the 1-169th AVN.
