Let’s sip on some refreshing beer and do some cool beer stuff. Hey, did you know that August was originally called Sextilus, Latin for “sixth month”, before Augustus decided to make it about him. To all the august August born babes, we send you the utmost respect, especially our very own esteemed, acclaimed, beer nerds, Mike “Lost Lagers” Stein and Jake “Scoops” Berg. If you see these cool cats around DC this month, give them a birthday cheers or buy them a round, they definitely deserve it. Happy Beerthday Guys!
