Celebrating One Year of the Return of This Popular Illinois Brewing Company
This week, Blue Cat Brewing Company celebrates one year of bringing the Cat Back to the Quad Cities. The Blue Cat Brew Pub was many Quad Citizens' first foray into the craft beer world and after a short time away, it was time to make a comeback and we're thankful they did!
Brewing & Malting Science Certificate
Adding to his wall of certificates and brewing accolades, brewmaster Charlie Cole completed the Brewing & Malting Science certificate through the Master Brewers Association at the University of Wisconsin. Charlie received a scholarship and completed the course alongside brewers from Coors, Bells, Allagash, Urban Chestnut, Yards, Lawsons Finest Liquids and several other incredible North American breweries. This advanced program marks his 4th professional brewing certificate program (the most of any brewer in the Quad Cities).
Make Beer Your Career

Charlie will host a conversation with other local brewers about what they did prior to brewing.

Registration includes a complimentary beer flight and glassware. Free to attend but you must pre-register.
Learn To Homebrew Day
Blue Cat will also be hosting the National Homebrewers Association “Learn To Homebrew Day” on Saturday, November, 5th at 11 am.
