If you’re looking for a little company this week. Ray’s Growler Gallery, 8930 W. North Ave., has got you covered as it hosts a Company Brewing tap takeover on Wednesday, March 29, from 4 until 10 p.m.
Tosa’s top-notch taproom atop one of the area’s best beer and liquor stores will be tapping six brews made by Company at its Riverwest brewery.
Choose from a pilsner, maibock, Mosaic IPA, a double dry-hopped IPA, a bourbon barrel-aged imperial stour or a raspberry lemon lime “super gose.”
You’ll get a Ray’s/Company glass with your first pour and then you can keep it.
There will be ‘90s music playing, as well as clips from favorite ‘90s films. Plus, the Gallery is family friendly, with kids activity sheets and board games for family fun.
Slip downstairs before the 9 p.m. cutoff and you can stock up on Company brews in cans to take home, too.
A fun and easy-going way to close out OnMilwaukee’s annual March “Bar Month” celebrations.
