MadTree Collaborates with Top Cincinnati Chefs on Charity
Cookbook
Mix and Mash pairs
MadTree beers with gourmet recipes to support La Soupe
CINCINNATI
(December 18, 2017) – MadTree Brewing and top local chefs have collaborated to
bring food and beer together in a new cookbook, Mix and Mash: Recipes for the Table and Glass. MadTree has a long
history of working with local chefs to create unique new beer flavors through
their Chef Series and now they have created a full-color, hardbound cookbook to
showcase their combined talents. As a
part of MadTree’s belief that beer builds community and community builds beer, a
portion of the proceeds will be donated to local non-profit, La Soupe.
The
125-page book features more than 25 recipes created by the chefs using a
MadTree beer as an ingredient. The recipes span from vegetable fritto misto to roasted
pork belly tacos to citrus IPA bars. Readers will also get to know a little bit
more about each chef along the way. Additionally, MadTree has included the recipes
to brew their most popular beers at home.
“Creating
Mix and Mash has been one of the most
rewarding projects we have ever done at MadTree,” said Sarah Gast, MadTree
Brewing marketing manager. “We have always admired the creativity of these
chefs and loved brewing beer with them. This time, we were able to step into
their world to help share some amazing dishes while supporting a great cause.”
La
Soupe’s mission is to rescue otherwise wasted produce to create delicious and
highly-nutritious meals for customers, non-profits, and food-insecure families.
In 2016 alone, La Soupe rescued 125,000 pounds of perishable food from going to
the landfill (“ugly” or over ordered produce from grocery stores) and donated almost
75,000 servings to people living in food insecurity. They are on-target to
double that amount in 2017. MadTree previously partnered with La Soupe for the
launch of their Pilgrim fall ale, donating a portion of sales at the can launch
party in September of this year.
Mix and Mash is available now for
$50.00 at the MadTree Taproom, online at http://shop.madtreebrewing.com, and at Joseph-Beth
Booksellers’ Rookwood, Crestview Hills, and Christ Hospital locations.

About MadTree Brewing
Company
Cincinnati’s
MadTree Brewing made history when they opened in 2013 by becoming the first
modern craft brewery to can its beer in Ohio. In February 2017 they opened a
new $18M brewery, taproom, beer garden, and private event spaces in
Cincinnati’s Oakley neighborhood. MadTree is known for focusing more on great
tasting beers rather than following traditional brewing style guidelines. Their
award-winning beers are distributed throughout Ohio by Cavalier Distributing
and throughout Kentucky by Beer House Distributing. For more information about
the beers, brewery, and taproom, visit madtreebrewing.com or connect with them on Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram, and Snapchat.
About La Soupe
Headed
by Chef Suzy DeYoung, La Soupe is bridging the gap between food waste and
hunger. They rescue “ugly” and over-ordered perishable food to create delicious
and highly-nutritious meals for food-insecure families. A small percentage of
soup is sold to paying customers and sales of the meals fuel our donations to
Cincinnati’s food-deprived individuals. La Soupe is a non-profit organization
that relies on soup sales and individual donations to operate.
