Join Evening Star Cafe on Wednesday, October 2nd, as we feature the OktoberForest Virginia Collection, a set of collaboration beers brewed in conjunction with The Nature Conservancy (TNC). On this night, Evening Star will be one of a handful of venues throughout Virginia & DC tapping this special collection of beers that showcase Virginia-sourced ingredients. Representatives from TNC and the participating breweries will be in attendance to discuss the conservancy programs and the featured beers.The Oktoberfest Virginia Collection was spurred by Josh Chapman, founder & brewer of Upweller Beer Company. This year’s collection includes beers crafted with sassafras, longleaf pine, red spruce and eelgrass – all sourced from TNC-run land. The participating Virginia breweries this year include Upweller Brewing Company, Fine Creek Brewing Company, Väsen Brewing Company, and Sweetbay Brewing Company.
There is no admission fee for this event. All featured beers will be priced individually by the glass and in 4 oz. tasting pours.
