A while back I wrote that the Beer Junction was planning a move. Update on that: The store is scheduled to relocate in three months, per a company employee.

And this Thursday, August 25 starting at 5pm, the West Seattle beer emporium will host Stone Brewing from San Diego. Delicious beers, those. Try five of them for $4.

Friday, August 26 is the all-white party at Matthews Estate in Woodinville. Tickets are available on the website and cost $10 a piece. [SADNESS UPDATE: This event is sold out.]

Queensrÿche fan? On Friday you can meet singer Geoff Tate as he pours you some of the wine from his Insania label. The Insania project—don’t look at me, I didn’t name it—is a collaboration with Holly Turner of Three Rivers Winery. This happens from 4 to 7pm and is free.

And on Friday from 6 to 9pm the Maxwell Hotel does "Yappy Hour." It’s $20, there’s a canine beauty contest and a drink called a "puptail," and Q13’s Lily Jang hosts. Did I mention that you’re supposed to bring your dog? The event benefits the Humane Society.

Another way to do good as you booze: Sign up for the Ring Around the Needle pub crawl, a drinking tour of Lower Queen Anne that takes places this Saturday, August 27 from 1 to 5pm. It’s a fundraiser for the Melissa Erickson Foundation and the details are on the website.
