It's crazy to think that Jimmy Eat World's Futures is ten years old. Well, if you're thinking "I'll drink to that," – not exactly sure why you would be – now you can! The band recently announced plans to create a special beer in order to celebrate the aforementioned 2004 album's tenth anniversary.

The proceeds from the beer will reportedly to go charity, being split between MS Society and Little Kids Rock, and will be available at the band's Tuscon Rialto and Tempe Marquee gigs.

According to the Associated Press, the Bleed American musicians are gearing up to collaborate with the likes of Arizona Wilderness in order to churn out their musically-inspired brew. As noted, the forthcoming Jimmy Eat World beer will consist of 10 ingredients, including prickly pear cactus. So, that sounds ... good?

The band recently posted a picture to their instagram account, originally taken from Arizona Wilderness' account alongside the caption:

#futures10 collaboration beer for charity will be available at the Tucson Rialto and Tempe Marquee gigs! All profits go to @mssociety and @littlekidsrock We are working with @arizona_wilderness to create an indigenous saison recipe that supports a bright future by incorporating locally grown heritage grain from @haydenflourmills and hand picked prickly pear fruit we found at our neighbors house with a bunch of other cool stuff from @agritopiafarm too! Stay tuned for more info.
