Don’t miss this one 🔥🍺🎉 with Brad Burg on the Taps pouring for a good cause 👍🏼

We are proud to partner with Afro Caribbean Brewing Co in the first of our Co-Lab series which brings out unique and diverse versions of the annual beer release in keeping with the Candy Cane theme. With these Co-Labs we aim to partner with cool breweries and brands to continue raising funds to fight against cancer the best way we know how.

This 3.5% session version of Candy Cane IPA is light and easier drinking than its original double IPA. It presents similar refreshing candy like characteristics of cherry and vanilla flavors with a soft sweet finish.

See you this Thursday @ the Jam! Cheers
