CELEBRATE THE WOMEN OF CRAFT BEER

I attended this even last year and it was excellent. The speakers all provided some very interesting insight into brewing and particularly what’s like to be a woman in a male dominated industry.

Strangeways Facebook Event:

Women have been a major part of the booming beer industry for some time now. It’s time to celebrate that with the STRANGEWAYS BREWINGCelebration of Women in Craft Beer event!

MAKE VALENTINE’S DAY LEGENDARY

You don’t want to wait until the last minute to plan out your Valentine’s Day. This advice applies even if you’re flying solo. Either way Legend Brewing has you cover and the details are on Facebook.

IT’S TIME FOR AN INTERMISSION

Richmond BizSense has the details on a new brewery heading for Henrico. Intermission Beer Company will be near the Virginia Commons Mall.

Hit the first link for some details.

There’s no firm date for Intermission’s opening, but Courtney said they’re targeting mid- to late spring. The brewery has most of the equipment it’ll need to brew – it’s just a matter of waiting for ABC licenses.

“The buildout is so minimal. We’re dying to get brewing,” Justin said.
