Official press release:
KnuckleBonz, Inc. and The Cliff Burton Estate are announcing they will launch a Cliff Burton branded beer and a KnuckleBonz Limited Edition Collectible Statue (coming soon, stay tuned!) with a portion of all proceeds going to the Cliff Burton Music Scholarship Foundation for Rising Youth Musicians. The beer is the first product to release, with pre-sales now available.
The Cliff Burton (Cliff ‘Em All) IPA Beer (6.4% ABV), the latest in the KnuckleBonz® Beverage Series, is brewed by Calicraft Brewing Co.® and is now available for pre-sale online at CraftShack®, pre-order now.
A collaboration between the Cliff Burton Estate, KnuckleBonz and Calicraft Brewing spawns the 7th beer in the KnuckleBonz Beverage Series. This collaboration series combines the love of great beer with a devotion to great music.
Brewed to celebrate the music, life, and legacy of the master musician Cliff Burton, Cliff ’em All IPA is made in a classic NorCal style: hoppy, bold, and crushable! Capturing the best of a classic West Coast beer, and made with simcoe and citra hops, this IPA pairs well with all forms of incredible music!
The Burton Family has issued this statement:
“Continuing the mission of Cliff’s father, the late Ray Burton, the Cliff Burton Foundation is centered on fostering the next generation of musical talent. We hand pick young individuals from around the world with the same enthusiasm for music and dedication to their craft as the late bassist Cliff Burton had. Cheers to Cliff and Ray Burton who loved a good beer!”
