A new festival is coming to the beer garden this summer - featuring ciders, seltzers, and sour beers from some of the best craft beverage producers in the southeast. Crushable will be the can’t-miss event of the summer!
Team Member Spotlight: Jason Coe
It’s been a little while since we posted a spotlight article about one of our team members. So, we decided to put another one together that features Jason Coe, who has been bartending at The Jug since June 2020. In fact, we wanted to tell you about Jason because he recently accepted our offer to become our new Taproom Operations & Sales Manager. We are VERY excited to have him in this new role!

Wild & Sour Beer Festival Returns to The Glass Jug & Sam's Bottle Shop
DURHAM (NC) - The Glass Jug and Sam's Bottle Shop, two of the Triangle area's premiere craft beer retail destinations, are partnering up to put on their second annual 2-day festival of wild-fermented and sour ales. "Where the Wild Beers May Potentially Be," first held in 2015, is the brainchild of the two stores, where each location features at least a dozen different wild and sour beers on draft. These specialty drafts will include local brews, as well as beers from across the US and abroad. This year's event will start at Sam's Bottle Shop on Saturday, then continue to The Glass Jug on Sunday.
Giving Back to Our Community
We talk a lot about wanting to play a role in our community, and that's more than just a marketing pitch. While it is great for business if our customers feel connected to our store and that The Glass Jug is playing an active role in the community, we also need to put our money where our mouth is. Throughout the year, we donate and sponsor several local charitable organizations. This includes our sponsorship of the Team on Draft cycling team that raised a total of over $125k for the National MS Society.
Stock Up on Craft Beer Stocking Stuffers
Here at The Glass Jug, we believe that craft beer is the perfect gift for every occasion, whether it be the holiday season, a birthday, housewarming, or just a gift to yourself. Since the holiday shopping season is upon us, and we all have craft beer-loving friends, we thought we would take a few minutes to highlight some of the great gifts and stocking stuffers that every beer enthusiast needs.
