Stoup is open and very similar to Optimism

 We met at Stoup last Friday and it was similar to Optimism. They have changed up some things and even have a dispenser for small food items. It was fun to be back at our place to knit and crochet.

Hope to see you sometime soon.  PS they have Root Beer!

Root Beer!!!

Stoup Opening where Optimism used to be...this is Happy News!

Just read that they will have Root Beer and other non-alcoholic drinks!

 From Stoupbrewing_capitol hill Instagram:

 We will open our doors at 3pm on Wednesday August 23rd so #savethedate. We are very proud that the beer tenders you know & love are moving forward with us and friendly, familiar faces will be pouring your pints. As we said in June, community and neighborhood are guiding lights for us when deciding how Stoup might grow and Capitol Hill feels like the perfect fit for our values. It is our intention to embrace and grow the wonderful community Optimism has built. Thank you for following us here. We look forward to seeing you next Wednesday.

From knitcaphill: We are planning on being there our regular time 1-3pm Friday August 25 for our knit/crochet group gathering. Hope to see you there.
