Lately we’ve had some INSANE and hard to find craft beers on tap! We figure, we can’t stop now! So, we’ve partnered up with Karl Strauss to bring you an evening of rare specialties. They’ve pulled out the big guns for this one and dusted off some amazing beers that were hiding in the back of their cellar. They were waiting for a special occasion and we figured June 14th, 2016 from 5PM to 10PM at the Anaheim Packing House is as good of a time as any!
Check out the line up of these exceptional suds...
