First all-female binational brewing project results in “Las Hermanas” beer release

First all-female binational brewing project results in “Las Hermanas” beer release

Jan 15, 20201 min read

Back in December, history was made, but now you get to taste the creation.

Borderlands Brewing Company is tapping into the Las Hermanas IPA during its release party from 5 – 7 p.m. on Friday, January 17.

Last month, the women brewers of Borderlands Brewing teamed up with the women brewers of Turulata Brewing Company from Mexico — making it the first all-female binational brewing project.

“This collaborative brew has brought together two nations in the spirit of diplomacy, a shared passion for craft beer and the empowerment of women,” said Marisol Vindiola, director of Mexico initiatives at Visit Tucson, in a press release.

“This is a great opportunity to show women are playing an important role in craft brewing and to further the conversation on diversity in the brewing industry. With Las Hermanas we are transcending borders, sharing knowledge, and investing in our brew,” Sandra Navarro of Turulata Brewing Company said.

That’s pretty sweet, right?

Speaking of sweet, the Las Hermanas IPA should have a hint of sweetness, which is a hazy, tropical, and juicy brew.

The release party is free to attend and there will be food available to purchase, too.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
