About this Event
🍺 Learn to brew beer & enjoy a BBQ Lunch
Tell time?
Boil water?
Follow a recipe?
Then you can brew beer. We will show you how. This workshop is geared for total beginners, but all levels are welcome. In a hands-on format, you will be brewing with the Head Brewer and enjoying an all-you-can-eat Bavarian BBQ lunch in our Friendship Garden — a relaxing afternoon featuring craft beer and BBQ - two things that go great together.
🍽️ Enjoy a menu centered around:
- House-smoked pork and chicken, then finished on the BBQ - yummm!
- Fresh pretzels and classic accompaniments
- In-house smoked meats
- Our own Hefeweissbier & Lagers (beer samples for 21+)
Vegetarian options are available — simply select the appropriate ticket.
For vegan guests, please let us know in the comments at the time of purchase, and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
