DENIZENS BREWING CO. IN SILVER SPRING GETS CONSTRUCTION PERMIT

Denizens Brewing Co., an urban craft brewery and bar opening this summer in downtown Silver Spring, has been issued a construction permit by Montgomery County. This will allow the owners to transform the space at 1115 East-West Highway from a restaurant into a "restaurant and brewing company" configuration, according to the permit.

Among the in-house brew options will be trendy sour beers, and there will be live music as well. This definitely sounds like a great addition to downtown Silver Spring.

Up until now, Denizens has been in the news for changing its name - after another local brewery, DC Brau, objected to the original brand name of Citizens Brewing Company. No, I don't get what the problem was, either.

By this summer, expect Denizens to be know more for its beers and nightlife than that old story.
