We couldn’t be more excited to host our friends from Sardine for day two of our Oyster Stout weekend party.
We collaborated on brewing an Oyster Stout. Sardine provided the oysters, we worked together on a recipe, and then we all got together and brewed a great beer.
But we’re not just tapping a delicious beer. Sardine is also popping up and shucking oysters right here at WDBC 🦪
We’ll be giving away some merch from WDBC and Sardine (that’s right, Sardine has merch now!).
And a bonus (if you needed one): If you attend both Friday and Saturday events, you get two free oysters here at WDBC on Saturday.
Like I said, we couldn’t be more excited. See you Saturday 8/15 here at Working Draft. And hopefully Friday 8/14 at Sardine as well :)<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/156507/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
