Before we get into our events next week, let’s not overlook Friday’s event. Lagunitas drops by for a pint night of their Pils and Willetized Coffee Stout from 5-8pm. Gonna be a good time.
Then next week, it’s everyone’s favorite totally not Hallmark-manufactured holiday: Valentine’s Day. Because we here at WhichCraft are all romantics deep down, we’re throwing a beer and candy pairing from 5-8. Stop by anytime, no RSVP required. It’ll be $15 for four 5oz pours with an accompanying candy. Our very own Jody and Carlie will be curating the menu, so don’t miss this event.
And Monday, February 18, we’re kicking off this year’s first Style Night with a big, boozy, bodacious theme: Barrel-Aged Beers. Join WhichCraft and The Beer Museum as we’ll be tasting beers styles aged in a variety of different barrels. Aging beer in fresh french oak, bourbon, and rum barrels all add complex flavors to the beer itself. Tickets are $20 and will probably sell out, so get yours now here.
Don’t let the shortest month pass you by, keep buying our February BotM: NXNW. All month, pick up 6pks of Northern Lights, Red Zeppelin, and Zombie Dragon for $6.99. Yowza!
