Community Pint's First BEERthday

Community Pint, the craft beer bar on East Sprague that quickly became a local favorite, is turning one year old this month, celebrating with a four-day showcase of rare craft beers, in-house specials and more. The bar’s first anniversary happens to coincide with National IPA Day on Thursday, Aug. 2, so co-owner TJ Wallin is bringing out seven new IPAs, including first-time arrivals to Spokane Block 15 Brewing, from Corvallis, Oregon. Other beers include Fremont Brewing’s “Nelda” and “Deluxe,” along with a beer from Crux Fermentation Project made with the high-end Australian hop Vic Secret. Friday’s festivities include tappings of four barrel-aged sours and one stout. Beer lovers can purchase a commemorative 20-ounce anniversary mug to get filled throughout the month at the 16-ounce pour price. Community Pint also recently debuted an in-house crowler machine, offering beer to-go in 32-ounce cans.
