Santa let us in on a little secret… he’s vacationing here in Chester. So we roped him into a little Christmas in July celebration while he’s here. Join us on Saturday June 19 for Photos with Santa, a limited release of our holiday ale: Scrooge, and our Naughty & Nice Yankee Gift Swap. Event kicks off at 1 PM!

SCROOGE RELEASE

PHOTOS WITH SANTA
In the back of the brewery from 1-4 PM. Please be respectful of our Santa. He’s keeping track of the naughty & nice list here people! Friends, families, kids, and dogs welcome for photos.

NAUGHTY AND NICE YANKEE GIFT SWAP
With Santa's arrival around the corner, we've brought back our Naughty & Nice Gift Swap.

Bring a gift to pick a gift on Saturday June 19th to play! Gift drop off starts at 1 pm and we'll start picking around 1:30. Check in with your bartenders upon arrival.

This is a 21+ event and not intended for younger brewery goers.

There is a $30 gift limit and gifts can be "naughty" or "nice". Rumor has it's the elves at Little House will be throwing in a couple items too!

---

The rules for Yankee Swap are as follows:

Each player brings a wrapped gift, naughty or nice in the $30 price range. Gifts should be unmarked and tagless.

Players draw numbers from a hat to determine the order in which they will select gifts.

The player with the lowest number goes first and picks a gift from the pile. They open the gift for everyone to see.

The next player can either choose a new gift from the pile or "steal" the gift that the previous player chose.

To keep the game moving, a gift can only be stolen 2 times.

The game ends when all the gifts have been unwrapped and no more swaps can take place.

The player who went first gets to choose from all the gifts or keep what they already have.

Join us on Saturday April 12 for our annual Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day Release. Christina, other CT Pink Boots Members, and friends in the community have whipped up something special for you!

"She Packs a Punch" is a West Coast Double IPA. Bitter and malty, this beer is a classic west coast style.

The CT Chapter of the Pink Boots Society will be in the back of the brewery with information about joining the chapter, the brewing school and scholarship, and donations. A portion of proceeds from the April Giving Tap will be donated to the CT Chapter.

This is the Scrooge(d) announcement that you've been waiting for!!

This Friday (12/20) at 2pm SHARP - both variations of 2024 Scrooge are releasing here In our little taproom. We've got very limited quantities of the original Scrooge you know and love, brewed at a strong 9.5% abv with tart cherries, Fat Stone Farm dark maple syrup, vanilla, winter spices and hard maple wood. AND an even more special barrel aged version than last year's... an imperial, 15% abv Scrooge'd aged for one year in a fresh Amburana Rye Barrel. It's easily the best Scrooge rendition yet, and we can't wait for you to share it with friends and family (or don't, we won't tell).

Bah, Humbug!

Feel that crisp breeze and those crunchy leaves starting to settle in as summer comes to a close? That can only mean one thing ... It's HAUS PARTY time!!

"A Boot has No Name" is a session IPA. Easy to drink, this beer has a slightly bitter bite but all the juicy aromas you'd expect from a NEIPA.

Hot Taco Street Kitchen will be in the beer garden serving up awesome tacos. They sold out at our last event so get here early and get some amazing food!

Lovage Permanent Jewelry will be in the back of the brewery from 12-4 PM. Made from a chain that is welded together instead of closed with a clasp, your permanent jewelry is tough enough for your adventures and delicate enough to forget you’re even wearing it. Celebrate a milestone for yourself or make a memory with someone special to you and experience the spark of joy and magic of Lovage Permanent Jewelry.
