Seventh Son Brewing Co. is going all out for its 10th anniversary on April 20. The brewery recently announced that it will throw a 10-day celebration, running from April 14-23, that will include brewery tours, beer tastings, live music, a family fun day, an Earth Day community cleanup and much more. Events will take place at Seventh Son in Italian Village (1101 N. Fourth St.) and its sister breweries, Antiques on High in the Brewery District (714 S. High St.) and Dublin’s Getaway Brewing Co. (108 N. High St.). Seventh Son was founded in 2013 by friends Jen Burton, Collin Castore and Travis Spencer. “Looking back on the past decade, we feel very proud of what we’ve accomplished, and happy to have experienced success and growth in Columbus,” Castore said in a press release. “It’s been fun making great, standout beers as well as great spaces that our guests, neighbors and employees have been able to enjoy. This is all cause for the 10-day-long celebration. It’s going to be a blast.”
