Outer Light Brewing Company and the Mystic Chamber of Commerce have collaborated to release Walk Your Horses New England India Pale Ale, a one-off release that commemorates the 100th Anniversary of the Mystic Bascule Bridge. Walk Your Horses is a New England-style India Pale Ale that pays homage to the local landmark, which has been connecting the communities of Groton and Stonington in its current form for a century.

Walk your horses will be available on draft and in 16-ounce 4-packs. It will be released at the brewery on May 12, with limited distribution through the summer and fall across southeastern Connecticut. A portion of the proceeds from the beer will be donated to the Scholarship Fund, which has been created for incoming high school seniors from the four neighboring schools around Mystic: Stonington High School, Fitch High School, Grasso Technical High School and Westerly High School in Rhode Island.

The Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce, the Mystic River Historical Society, and Foxwoods Resort Casino are partnering with a host of for-profit and non-profit organizations to commemorate the Mystic Bascule Bridge’s 100th Year.
