"When Optimism Brewing was around, we wouldn't have changed anything about the expansive space—except their mediocre beer. Apparently, that wasn't too much to ask for, because Stoup, one of the best breweries in town, took over. This Capitol Hill outpost is the perfect place to host IPA-fueled birthday parties, secret patio hangs with food truck lunches, and pre-wedding welcome events. Now, with better beer." - Aimee Rizzo
