Monday night (October 21) at 7 pm, Boat Works in St Clair Shores (12 & Harper) will be holding a tap takeover. All 10 Handles, and it's encouraged to bring growlers if you'd like. Tap list is, Local's Light, Bellaire Brown, Huma, Soft Parade, Autumn Ale, The Curl, Spruce Pils, Cerveza de Julie, Kind Ale and Pistachio Cream Ale.
I'm just wondering why you are encouraging people to bring growlers to a tap takeover? I'm all for Michigan's new laws that allow bars/restaurants to fill growlers. But a tap takeover is normally a place where a brewery brings some of their more "rare" beers that don't see distribution or that flow from the taps only at the brewery. Allowing growlers at a tap takeover would only seem to limit how many people can try these beers if they are going to be filled into growlers. Granted, the only "rare" offering from Shorts here is Pistachio, and maybe you won't fill growlers of it. So maybe my point overall is moot. But as a new law in Michigan are most bars/restaurants that serve quality craft beer going to limit what they will put in growlers during special events? Is it up to the brewery at the event or up to the establishment?
I just want everything gone that night. If something is super rare, I don't allow growlers. I'd rather have as much gone as possible so I don't have to hold onto the deposits for 2 weeks. Hope you can make it Tim
I'm thrilled to get it & extremely grateful. And the first pour will be on my growler, perks of the job lol
