After three years of preparation, 3 Stars Brewing Company is finally making its public debut this week with release parties tonight and tomorrow.
It’s International IPA Day, so go out and celebrate with America’s most revered beer export.
During Savor Beer Week, we will be highlighting some exciting beers and events to attend every day throughout the week. Today: Odell’s 90 Schilling Ale.
Ready for the next D.C. brewery? Monday gives us a sneak peek of what’s to come from 3 Stars Brewing — we highlight that and other highlights of Savor Beer Week, after the jump.
Our city is getting invaded — and it is going to be a welcome occupation of our pint glasses and beer coasters. 2011 is the year of Washington D.C. beer.

Don’t worry, we’re not springing a pop quiz on you on a Friday, and this is nothing like that dream you had where you walked into class naked. Unless you want it to be. That’s your business. But here in Washington, we have no shortage of places to eavesdrop on the unsuspecting, and that’s…
Written by DCist contributor Judy Coleman. See all her biting legal analysis here. Summer lovin’ may be a blast. Summer lovin’, as it is wont to do, happens so fast.
