**Russian River Brewing Co.** will release a limited-edition **Pliny the Elder Double IPA** featuring artwork by **Stephan Pastis,** creator of the comic strip “Pearls Before Swine.”

“Pastis has been an enthusiastic supporter and consumer of the brewery for years, so this collaboration is a natural fit,” said Natalie Cilurzo, co-owner of [Russian River Brewing Co,](https://www.russianriverbrewing.com/?ref=bevnews.net) “We’ve admired Stephan’s creativity and humor for years. To see his Pearls characters on Pliny the Elder bottles is a huge honor for us.”

Pastis will appear at the brewery’s Windsor, Calif., pub from 5-6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, to sign bottles and copies of his new book, “Pearls Jubilee.”

The special-edition bottles will be available locally beginning the week of Nov. 2 and more broadly starting Nov. 12 wherever Pliny the Elder is sold, including Whole Foods, Oliver’s Markets and Bottle Barn.
