“For all the beer + Game of Thrones fans out there, Jack Rose Dining Saloon is hosting a very special launch party this Thursday, October 13 from 5 to 10 p.m. that combines the best of both worlds.
Every year, Brewery Ommegang out of Cooperstown, New York collaborates with HBO’s Game of Thrones on a special beer inspired by the critically-acclaimed show. The 7th release in the anticipated series is “Valar Dohaeris” – a Tripel Ale named after the premiere episode of the 3rd season, meaning “all men must serve” – and Jack Rose is thrilled to host the beer’s exclusive launch in DC this week. This beer is only released once a year and Jack Rose is the official bar to try it in DC.
2007 18th Street, NW
This Thursday, guests can try “Valar Dohaeris” along with other past releases which Beer Director Nahem Simon has collected over the years, such as Game of Thrones’ “Take the Black” stout, two limited-edition Three Philosophers kegs (barrel-aged and strawberry/cranberry), plus an array of Ommegang, Boulevard & Duvel beers “to have you singing songs of merriment in High Valyrian.” All beers are only $6 from 5-10 p.m.
And costumes are encouraged, for a chance to win prizes! Beer Director Nahem Simon invites guests to “don their best Game of Thrones costume or Wildling garb for a chance to win a plethora of riches from the vaults of the Iron Bank of Braavos!” The event is free to attend.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
