Shhh… this one’s kinda secret.
For our 20th Anniversary sendoff, we’re dropping a one-night-only Rare Beer Festival at Anchor Rock Club, the unofficial “secret session” of #ACBeerFest. This intimate, 350-person insider hang features 25 of the region’s most unique, small-batch, cellar-aged, casked, weird, wild, and otherwise impossible-to-find beers, each poured with the stories, insight, and personality straight from the brewers themselves.
Every brewery is digging deep to bring out the unicorns, the stuff that never sees daylight. Add in a “WTF did I just watch?” Brewery convos, fresh-shucked oysters from Ludlum Bay, and passed bites from our friends at Cardinal, and you’ve got a pregame built for the true diehards.
It’s not a crowd, it’s a vibe.
A 350-person, laugh-too-loud, swap-stories-with-brewers, once-in-a-lifetime tasting room where you will never drink this lineup again.
