It seems as if there is a National {insert noun here} Holiday about, well, every day. As long as those days are giving us more reason to imbibe our favorite alcoholic drinks, we’re on board to celebrate. National IPA Day is this Thursday, August 6. IPA Day was founded in 2011 to bring craft beer enthusiasts together to celebrate and share the love of craft beer. This Thursday, a number of local breweries and bars are hosting IPA-centered tap takeovers.
Smokehouse Brewing is hosting HOP-IPA-LOOZA to celebrate with ten IPA’s on tap including their own Chill Sesh and ZIPA. They’ll be featuring an IPA float with house-made Scottish Ale ice cream. Information
