Bluejacket

Sichuan pepper might be the most underrated ingredient in craft beer. It resets the palate. Makes citrus pop. Makes aromatics linger. Makes drinkers stop and go: “Wait… what IS that?” That’s why breweries like Brooklyn Brewery, Bluejacket, Young Master, and Burial have experimented with it in witbiers, saisons, and farmhouse ales. At 50Hertz Tingly Foods, we work with breweries, bars, and beverage programs exploring Sichuan pepper in both beer and bar snacks — including our tingly peanuts and cashews. If you run a brewery, taproom, or beer bar and want to experiment with Sichuan pepper: DM us! We’d love to collaborate. #craftbeer #brewery #sichuanpepper #craftbrewing #beerpairing

DOUBLE FEATURE: CROOKED CRAB + SOJOURN COLLAB RELEASES! Thursday, April 30th | 5:00 PM - Close Join Bluejacket on Thursday, April 30th, for a special double feature with guest beers from Crooked Crab Brewing Company and Sojourn Fermentory. On this night, we’ll release two brand new Bluejacket collaboration beers – Crooked Crab Nautical Nonsense + Sojourn Before Sunset – brewed separately by our friends from Crooked Crab and Sojourn. Crooked Crab Nautical Nonsense is a hazy IPA that’s blasted with juicy Citra, Motueka & Peacharine hops. These combine for an explosion of tropical citrus, ripe peach, and juicy fruit punch flavors. Sojourn Before Sunset is an English-style pale ale with notes of warm whole grain bread straight from the oven with thick, sweet notes of orange marmalade. Deep copper in color, and stiffly hopped for a balancing bitterness. There is no admission fee for this event. All featured beers will be available a la carte. THE FEATURED BEER LIST Crooked Crab Nautical Nonsense (Hazy IPA; Bluejacket Collab.) Crooked Crab DDH Galactic Crablord (Hazy Double IPA) Crooked Crab Prickly Pear Paloma Punchline (Fruited Sour Ale) Sojourn Before Sunset (English Pale Ale; Bluejacket Collab.)

This past Thursday evening, upon the request of my great friend Dan Steinberg, I dusted off my beer tutorial skill set and curated the beer list for a hugely successful, sold-out tasting. I conducted and presented four fantastic beers, two local as well as two traditional European beers. This was a benefit for John Eaton Elementary. It was held at one of the students' parents' private residence. When I learned it would be supporting youth arts programs, I was all in! Dan and I go back to 1999 @wholefoods - Georgetown. What a great organization back then, as they not only let our creative drive be showcased, but team leadership encouraged it. Dan curated the delicious Spanish cheeses as I orchastred the beer list. Of course, we surprised the enthusiastic attendees with a @underbergamerica , following the beers (and one-to go). It was such a pleasure to reconnect with an old colleague, and oh boy, did it bring back memories. Recollections of a wonderful, nurturing time in both of our careers. Thanks, Dan, for inviting me and cheers on the many years of success with the @washingtonpost and now, currently at @theatlantic ! @Bluejacketdc @ministryofbrewing @westmalletrappist @augustinerbraeu_muenchen @underbergamerica @underberg
