Meet Alain, one of Mighty Squirrel’s oldest friends and greatest supporters! Our co-founders, Naveen and Henry, first met Alain in 2014 and shared with him their plan to start a brewery. Alain immediately embraced both the idea and the people behind it with the passion, generosity, and encouragement that define him.
An avid cyclist, Alain was once among the nation’s best. Today, he channels that same drive into serving his community. As the founder of the RACE Cancer Foundation, Alain organizes running and cycling events throughout New England, bringing people together through sport while raising funds for cancer research. His passionate, caring, and community-driven spirit inspires everyone around him. Since 2015, Mighty Squirrel has partnered with Alain on over 100 events.
Alain’s wife, Kathleen, and their three adorable children have also become dear friends and a part of the Mighty Squirrel family. We brewed Dear Alain to celebrate the joy and energy Alain and his family bring to our brewery, the extraordinary work they do for their community, their commitment to supporting cancer research, and the way they show us what it means to lead with friendship, purpose, and a very big heart.
Dear Alain is a 6.9% New England IPA brewed with passion fruit- hazy and smooth, with vibrant tropical aromas, luscious passion fruit, and a bright, refreshing finish!
Please join us in celebration, along with Alain himself, for the release of Dear Alain tomorrow- Wednesday, August 26, at 6:00 PM at our Waltham Taproom. 🍻
4-packs will be available later this week.
