Bluejacket Hanging Out with the Cool Kids (Escondido, CA) -Bluejacket’s Brewmaster, Megan Parisi, recently revealed that Stone Brewing’s next collaboration partners will be the not-yet-opened Bluejacket and 10 Barrel Brewing. Our friends at beerpulse are reporting that Parisi was hanging out at the Stone compound yesterday along with 10 Barrel’s Tonya Cornett.
New Belgium Goes Full-On Mountie (Fort Collins, CO) – It appears that New Belgium Brewing’s World Domination Tour is continuing with word that they’ll be bringing their award-winning beers to the frozen wastelands that others refer to as British Columbia. This is their first foray into Canada and it’s scheduled to kick off in September, long before the country’s populace is forced to retire to their igloos to sit out their long cold winter. No word from New Belgium as to how extensively dog sleds will be used in this expansion.

DC Brau Gets Historical (Washington, DC) – The Heurich House Museum, DC Brau Brewing Company, and the DC Homebrewers will soon offer the city a taste of one of the District’s most important historic breweries. On August 12, they will launch Heurich’s Lager, an historical recreation of the pre-prohibition classic Pilsner that was originally brewed by the Christian Heurich Brewing Company. That evening, the museum will host a small formal fundraiser at his iconic Victorian mansion and will serve Heurich’s Lager for the first time.
