Stoup 10th Anniversary at Stoup "Capitol Hill"

  • Stoup Breiwng - Capitol Hill 1158 Broadway Seattle, WA, 98122 United States (map)

Event Details

SEATTLE, October 5, 2023 – Stoup Brewing is excited to celebrate ten years with a series of events at all three locations. 


“It is hard to believe that we opened our doors for the first time 10 years ago this month,” says Co-Owner and Creative Director, Lara Zahaba. “In some ways it feels like a lifetime ago, while in others, it could have been yesterday.” adds Robyn Schumacher, also a Co-owner and one of Stoup’s brewers. “Either way, it's an ample reason to party,” notes Zahaba.


The first celebration of the series will be on Wednesday, October 18th at Stoup Kenmore, the taproom and kitchen opened two years ago in partnership with the Weiman-Maclise family of restaurants. Chefs Jason Stoneburner and Russel Ocsan will be grilling up Hama Hama Oysters on the patio from 4pm. In honor of 10 years, we are offering 3 Oysters for $10.


“We’re taking the party to our newest Capitol Hill location at the corner of Broadway & Union on Friday night,” says Zahaba. “The Airscream mobile Karaoke lounge will be set up in the Capitol Hill Courtyard space from 6-10pm so guests can climb aboard with pints in hand and sing their hearts out!”


And on Saturday, October 21st, Ballard will host the grand bash featuring live music, onsite t-shirt printing, and a Lucky Linqs Jewelry pop up. The beer styles we opened with 10 years ago will be on tap in our upstairs space at 2013 prices. 


And what would an anniversary be without a celebratory Anniversary IPA? In ten amazing years, Stoup has brewed a wide variety of styles using a myriad of brewing techniques. Beers have evolved over time, but one thing has stayed consistent: consistently infusing passion for the craft into every brew. The Ten Year Anniversary IPA is no different. It's a Northwest Style IPA showcasing some of the most exciting hops on the block. 


Co-Owner and Head Brewer Brad Benson notes, “It has been quite a journey.” He goes on to say, "We couldn’t have imagined how our passion for beer would introduce us to so many amazing people, from the craftspeople that built our spaces, to our regulars, our wholesale customers, so many amazing employees, and of course the farmers and suppliers of everything needed to make our beers.” Robyn adds, “There are the founders that believed in us before a drop of beer was made and the friends & family that have supported us every step of the way.” “We are very grateful,” all three agree, 


To express this gratitude, the first 100 customers to purchase a to-go 4-pack Anniversary IPA at the Ballard celebration will receive a free commemorative glass. The gift will also be extended to the first 25 4-pack buyers at the Wednesday Kenmore celebration and the Friday Capitol Hill celebration.
