Smile with Santa at Hardywood West Creek
December 11th

As a parent who forced their child to pose for a picture with Santa I can say without a doubt had I been drinking a Gingerbread Stout at the time it would have been a more fun experience.

Santa’s coming to Hardywood ! Stop by our West Creek location for a visit full of holiday cheer!
Your ticket includes:
🎅 An opportunity to sit with Santa and share your list!
📸 A digital photo to treasure forever
🎟 Two drink tickets (can be used on non-alcoholic choices like our Francie’s Lemonade as well)
One ticket includes the whole family – no need to buy individual tickets per person!
When you checkout, you will choose an hour time slot, you will be assigned a five minute window upon arrival. Our Gingerbread Stout and variants will be available in the taproom for you to enjoy.

COTU Barrel Sale
December 11th

The perfect gift for the beer lover that has everything.

It’s that time of year again! We’re selling our used 55 gallon bourbon barrels to the public. We’re selling these at $50 apiece or 2 for $75. These will be sold only at the brewery, first-come first served, on Sunday, December 11th from 12-5 (we are closing early). Barrels can be purchased in the main taproom at the bar, and then picked up at the back of the building.
After Sunday, pre-paid arranged pickups will be accepted by emailing [email protected], while supplies last.
**Please be prepared to load these barrels on your own. COTU staff will NOT be able to assist in moving, lifting, or transporting any barrels. They weigh over 100 pounds each, so bring a friend and a truck!**

BEER NEWS

Buy a brewery. Montross Brewery & Beer Garden is up for sale. They’re looking for a new owner but are staying open while the search goes on. We went there for the first time this spring and if it wasn’t in the middle of nowhere (forgive me Montross) would even consider putting in a lowball offer. It’s a lovely little brewery that includes a bistro and Airbnb.
