Brewery Tours??!

You heard right! Dungeon Master Max is now giving official, educational brewery tours:

You can find the rest of Max's very helpful and absolutely not April 1st related brewery tips on our Instagram here and here.

Beer Release: Village Lich Maibock

To coincide with the finale of the second chapter of our house campaign, we tapped Village Lich on Friday! This 6.6% Maibock was brewed with candy cap mushrooms to add a hint of maple to an otherwise roasty, malty spring beer. This beer is named after brewer/owner Jess' character Hecaseta, from our original world of Val'Ruvina.

 

"What is living," Hecaseta mused, "but a state of sentient decay? Life thrives in its own dissolution." Otto sighed before nodding to the spore lich. "Fine. I'll stay for one more drink."

 

Village Lich is available on tap at the bar and also available to go in growlers or 32oz cans!

Springtime Swag

We have all kinds of new merch coming with the changing of seasons, including two shirts from Shirt Nerdery featuring art from our world, slap bracelets (yes, they're back!), snailfolk keychains, and green TPK-branded Chessex d6s.

 

It's not technically merch, but we also still have cans of our Dortmunder beer collab Rule of Cool that we did with our Tabor Neighbor Montavilla Brew Works a few weeks back. The can is cool as hell and you should collect one before they're gone!

Keep an eye out for more details on those as well!
