THE ANSWER AT CHURCHKEY: BLUEJACKET COLLABORATION RELEASE + TAP TAKEOVER + CAN DROP+ VIETNAMESE FOOD SPECIALS!
Thursday, June 11th | 4:00pm - Close

​

Join ChurchKey on Thursday, June 11th, as we host founder An Bui and his team from The Answer Brewpub for a special event. On this night, we will feature at least 10 beers from this renowned brewery from Richmond, VA, including a new collaboration with Bluejacket, plus 3 collaborative food specials!

Founder An Bui opened The Answer in 2014, in part because of the success of its sibling establishment, Mekong, a Vietnamese restaurant and beer bar that had earned national acclaim. After years of curating one of the best craft beer programs in the country, An started a brewery that quickly developed a reputation for pushing boundaries. Their fruited sour ales, stouts, and hazy IPAs continue to be some of the most sought-after on the East Coast, and their small-batch production means it’s incredibly hard to try them outside of Richmond.

Recently, the crew from Bluejacket (including our very own Greg Engert) visited The Answer, where they collaborated on a new Hazy Double IPA called An-Gert Management. Don’t miss your chance to try this special new beer at ChurchKey, alongside a slew of new beers from The Answer, including fruited sour ales and stouts that rarely leave the taproom.

There is no admission fee for this event. All featured beers will be available a la carte.
