Because we need more opportunities to drink good beer and hang out with brewers this week….
The Muddy Pig joins the ranks of those holding special events leading up to ABR tomorrow. They welcome John Haggerty, former brewer at Minneapolis Town Hall and now brewmaster at New Holland Brewing Company to the Pig tonight at 5:00. John will be available to answer your questions about beer, brewing, New Holland and the beer business in general. Mark sez: “Start you weekend right with a cold New Holland beer and great conversation with one of the craft beer industry’s real talents.”
