Surly Draft Truck @Stub & Herb’s

By on July 29, 2009in bars/restaurants, beer events, breweries

Wednesday, July 29th – debut of the Surly Draft Truck. Will be seen at all Gopher Home Football games, SurlyFest, select Vikings games (Green Bay – Monday night), Darkness Day, our parking lot, your neighborhood party.
See the draft truck in action Wednesday night at Stub & Herbs Bar at the U of MN. We are testing out its pouring capabilities. To entice you to come out, when you buy a Surly Beer for $5, you get a cheeseburger off the backyard grill. Hell Yeah, put that on the board. This deal lasts from 5-7 PM. Also, you can talk shit to Jon about his Southside White Sox. The bar manager – Jon – one of the first guys to puor our beer, likes the Sox. Stub & Herbs will also be raffling off a pair of Twins tickets. While that is going on, pick your favorite state brew, MN beers vs IL beers.
