Fall Beer Float Social! w/ Ice Cream Social Sat. Oct. 17th, 3-6p

on Sat, 10/10/2015 - 18:25

In all the excitement and fun events the changing seasons bring, one of our most beloved traditions is the pairing of craft beer and artisanal, locally-made ice cream. That’s right, it is time again for our latest Beer Float Social!
 

Saturday, Oct. 17th, from 3p to 6p, we will be hosting our friends from Tacoma’s very own Ice Cream Social, who will be slinging scoops of their latest creations. And to pair, we’ll be tapping up some seasonally appropriate pumpkin and fall brews, including (but not limited to) releases from Elysian, D's Wicked Cider, Reuben's Brews, and Epic Brewing Company.

But really we just want more ice cream. We are bringing back one of our most popular events, the Beer Float Social. With the help of our friends at Ice Cream Social, you can experience the goosebump-inducing combination of delicious craft beer poured over creamy artisinal ice cream.

April 18th, from 3pm to 6pm, we’ll be tapping up

The lab geeks at Pint Defiance have been busy working on a unified theory of beer, searching for the deliciousness boson and we are ready to put these equations to the test. But we need some volunteers to experiment on. Will combining the correct elements result in a plasma of perfection, or will it cause an explosion of ecstasy?

Saturday, Oct. 18th, from 3p to 6p, we will be hosting our latest Beer Float Social with a twist: PUMPKIN BEERS!
