What's this about a residency, you ask? Hard to explain it all at once, but Scratch will be coming in for three days to take over BT - each day with it's own theme. There will be special vintage tastings each day, break-out demonstrations, special pizzas, cask tappings, and a whole lot more. Stay tuned for details there.

Daily Themes:
Day 1 - Trees
Day 2 - Mushrooms
Day 3 - Wild fruit and berries

Part 2 of what The Beer Temple crew will be drinking this holiday season.

What will the staff at The Beer Temple be drinking this holiday season, part 1

We’re finally ready to announce our big news: Middle Brow pizza will be a permanent resident at The Beer Temple! We could not be more excited to be working with the wonderful people at Middle Brow Bungalow on pizza - an ALL-NEW pizza at that! We will be sharing dates, menus and lots more as soon as we can, but for now, there are a few questions we CAN answer now: YES will have pizza to-go YES will have delivery! (although not right away - we need to get our sea legs first) YES you will be able to get beer & wine delivered along with your pizza! Thanks for everyone’s patience while we got everything dialed in for this. Stay tuned for dates and more info. @middle__brow
