Kill The Keg with Left Hand (Week Sauce)
Thursday 5/17/12 starting at 11:00 am
Join us for a wonderfully fun event–Kill the Keg. We will be tapping a keg of Left Hand Beer Week Sauce to celebrate American Craft Beer week. This specially concocted beer pours jet black with aromas of intense cold extracted coffee. But what’s the deal you say? Well, the person who orders the last pint gets a Left Hand Survival Pack. This consists of a 12pk, 2 pint glasses and a T-Shirt. Ok, so come later? No, come early because we will be giving out your very own pint glass to take home with you for the first 50 folks who order a Beer Week Sauce between 11am and 1pm. And if we do make it to 50 by 1pm there will be something cool to give away then too!
Then at 5pm we’ll do the pint glass giveaway again for the first 50 of you that come see us straight from work. But wait…there’s more. As we pass key numbers in the killing of the keg we’ll have some cool stuff to give away. So be there or you’ll seriously miss out!…
