By on February 24, 2011in bars/restaurants, beer events, breweries, cask beer

(It was thankfully brought to our attention that the REAL final event is the March 2nd)

Well the March is almost here and that means Surly is officially 5 years old and we’ll have to wait another year to celebrate another Surly anniversary. But at least we’ll have their beer to get us through.

Stop by the Groveland Tap on Monday to celebrate at the brewery’s final anniversary party.

Surly 5th Birthday Stops at The Tap on Monday Feb. 28th!! We will be tapping a keg of Moes Bender at 5pm, a cask of Dry Hopped Bender at 6 pm, AHA Rally beer at 7 pm and Pentagram at 8 pm. There are limited amounts of all and very limited of the Rally beer and Pentagram, we will begin to sell tickets for those at 5pm with a limit of 1 per person.

Surly Anniversary at Triple Rock

PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED DUE TO THE WEATHER. A RESCHEDULED DATE WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON.

Put one last hurrah in your weekend with a visit to Triple Rock Social Club Sunday evening to celebrate Surly’s 5th Anniversary.

The fun starts at 7:00, but if you want to ensure you get some Pentagram you might want to show up a little early. They’ll be tapping a firkin of Mild at 7:30 and also pouring AHA Rally Beer and Moe’s Bender.

Firkin Fest 2011

By on February 19, 2011in beer events, cask beer

For those of you that have been to Firkin Fest at The Happy Gnome before, make sure to take note of some changes that are being made to the event this year.

This year we will try to push up the number of Firkins to over 70. We are limiting the number of people and having a set entrance fee (so once you get in, you sample the beer you want and don’t worry about tickets or such). We want you to come experience some amazing one of a kind beer.

Tickets on sale March 1st via our website. $35 for regular entrance (1-5), $45 VIP (enter at noon!). Once the beer runs out, the beer is gone, so first come first serve. Should be plenty of beer with over 70 firkins (so with 9 imperial gallons in each firkin…)

Looking forward to having some fun, rain or shine. Tickets will not be refundable.
