The Olde Hickory Tap Room (restaurant location with close ties to the Olde Hickory Brewery) is joining in this national celebration of quality craft beer with several ways to enjoy these great brews.

To start: We'll have 19 American craft beers (and a cider) on tap. A variety of brewers and styles to choose from!

Then we're making every night a Pint Night that week- buy a pint of the featured beer and take home the glass (limit one per customer, while supplies last, etc.) The schedule as it stands right now is:

  • Mon. 14th: Mother Earth Weeping Willow Wit
  • Tues. 15th: Duck-Rabbit Brown
  • Wed. 16th: NoDa Brewing Ramble on Red™
  • Thurs. 17th: Highland Brewing Black Mocha Stout
  • Fri. 18th: Foothills Brewing Hefeweizen AND Foothills Brewing Hoppyum
  • Sat. 19th: Sierra Nevada Hoptimum
  • Sun. 20th: Crispin Cider French Broad 13 Rebels

But we also want to help our patrons learn more about the beer. So we are offering a special menu in addition to our regular menu. It will feature both Tap Room classics (many with Olde Hickory beer as an ingredient) plus a few items created just for the week. Each item will be listed with a suggested beer beer pairing, and an explanation of why that is the perfect beer to complement the dish.

And finally, Thursday through Saturday only, we'll be serving cask ale from Olde Hickory. The casks are still a secret, but one thing is certain...there will be at least one Black Death (Black Raven and Death by Hops)!
