If you want to be part of the celebration to debut the official Palatine 150 'Rail Ale' at Emmett's Brewing Company in downtown Palatine, attend the official launch at 4:30 p.m. this coming Thursday, June 16th.

Shortly after the event opens, attendees will hear from Palatine 150 Core Committee member Joe Petykowski who worked with Emmett's on the commemorative beer concept. Then, Palatine Mayor Jim Schwantz will say a few words to reflect on the Village's sesquicentennial year, as Palatine celebrates 150 years since its incorporation.

Clayson the Family Dog, the Palatine 150 mascot will also be greeting attendees. Businesses and organizations that are interested in having a visit from Clayson can email info@Palatine150.com to make a formal request.

Emmett's is located at 110 N. Brockway Street in downtown Palatine, and will feature samples of the Rail Ale for attendees, along with $5 pint specials for the special brew, and burgers or brats for $5 each on the patio.

The celebration will run from 4:30 p.m. until 8 p.m.

All Palatine residents are invited to join the festivities.
