It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. Blackbird pairs tart sharpness with the soothing characteristics of black tea for a sessionable sour that hits all the high notes. Herbal and floral aromatics are accented by hints of tart citrus from our kettle-souring process. - Friday, October 26th. A Night of Wooden Robot Sours. Trackside Crafts. 5 pm-10 pm. Coming off their huge win at the Great American Beer Festival for barrel-aged fruited sour, we will tap 3 great sours from their excellent sour program…plus, we’ll welcome back a familiar face from the Trackside family past: Federico De La Torre from Wooden Robot’s brew team! Tap list will include:
Daddy Needs His Juice

Where, you ask, is the Gold Medal winning Peche Doree? You’ll have to wait for the anniversary party…but these 3 beers are an excellent preview. Come to give Freddy hugs and get an update from the man himself! - Friday, October 26th. Firkin Friday: Island Azacca Hopper. Pilot Brewing. 4 pm-10 pm. This Friday we will have our Island Hopper in the firkin. We have single hopped our traditional American IPA with Azacca hops which will add citrus and mango notes with a little orchard fruit. As an added bonus, we dry-hopped with Mosaic hops for an intense aroma of fresh pine, mango, blueberry, and citrus!
