In conjunction with The Prescott Foundation at Hangar 743 in Albany, NY and Indian Ladder Farms Cider and Brewery in Altamont, NY, Aces In Action was asked to help supply the artwork for their limited edition craft beer, "Old Glory - American Light Lager 5%".
The B-25J Mitchell "Old Glory" is currently being restored back to flying status after crash in September 2020. Proceeds from the sale of this beer will be going to putting "Old Glory" back in the air.
From ilfcbshop.com - "This American Light Lager was hopped with Helderberg and the addition of flaked corn. The use of Helderberg hops (more than likely) were used by Albany breweries and the addition of corn was a cheap adjunct which would lighten the body of the beer. Which makes this beer a piece of history, just like Old Glory. "
