(Press Release)

WASHINGTON, D.C.—For inauguration, Bluejacket has brewed a special beer that will be poured at each of the Neighborhood Restaurant Group’s DC restaurants (Birch & Barley, ChurchKey, Bluejacket, Red Apron Union Market, Red Apron Burger Bar, The Partisan, Iron Gate, Hazel, The Sovereign, EatBar) starting Wednesday, Jan. 18th. Aptly dubbed “People are People,” all proceeds from the sale of this beer during the weekend will go to DC’s Immigrant Justice Legal Service Grant Program, a non-profit organization that provides legal services for immigrants.

“People are People” is a bone-dry Belgian-style Saison of 6% ABV that’s been brewed in the spirit of solidarity. It is golden in color, brewed with raw wheat, deftly hopped with American, European and Southern Hemisphere hops, and fermented with a blend of Farmhouse yeasts. “People are People” exudes rustic notes of earth, lemon and pepper, along with aromas of white wine and tangerines. Priced at $6/glass and available beginning Wed. 1/18 while supplies last (but most definitely through Inauguration weekend).
