Project Venus
Collaboration brew among Cambridge, Stone and Victory Brewing Companies. The first major collaborative brew featuring all women brewers.
Great brew day last Saturday at Ilkley Brewery with Project Venus UK - looking forward to the final product, and such am honor to work with these brewsters!
Project Venus is going across the pond! On Saturday 27 October, I (Megan) will be joining our sister brewsters of Project Venus UK & Eire in Leeds UK to brew. These ladies have really taken the idea and run with it, I'm so excited to get to be a part of their adventure.
Project Venus will be served today at the Stone Brewing Co.'s 15th Anniversary Party this afternoon in the rare beer section - go get some! And say "hi" to Laura Ulrich if you can!
Check out Project Venus on tap at these other fine locations in Cambridge & Somerville: The Independent, Bukowski Tavern, and Brattle Theatre - they just took delivery the other day.

Project Venus: Sista’s Are Brewing it For Themselves « Stacey and Frank Sip and Spin Stacey: Tonight, Frank and I are enjoying the fruits of our labor. Well, more legitimately, we’re enjoying the fruits of others’ labor. But because I interviewed said others for an Ale Street News column, we get to be among the first people in the world to appreciate their work.
In case you hadn't heard about our colleagues across the pond, Project Venus UK & Eire took place yesterday, March 12!
