To celebrate the release of our new blends and show appreciation to our Blender’s Circle members, we’re hosting a weekend of tastings accompanied with specially selected food pairings exclusively for Blender’s Circle members. On August 4th, 5th, and 6th, our Country Brewery will be closed to the public in order to host this beer-and-food pairing experience!

As a Blender’s Circle member, you will have the opportunity to RSVP for the event beginning July 31st, so watch your email for the link! You must RSVP to attend and you will have a 2-hour window to taste through the releases and pairings, after which you can customize which bottles you take home so you get more of what you love! We’ll also have our normal food menu available and glass pours to enjoy the afternoon. Please note that we no longer allow outside food.

At the release, you’ll be able to mingle and socialize with other members while enjoying the new beers and hand-selected small bite food pairings in a fest-like atmosphere. If you prefer a seated, more tranquil atmosphere, we return to table service the following weekend.

We can’t wait to see you at the release! If you’re not a member yet but would like to join the club before the release, you can sign up here!

Release FAQs

Please share tables with other members and feel free to bring blankets etc. We return to table service the following weekend if you prefer a more tranquil atmosphere.
