We love craft beer. We do. But, we’ve also always been able to hold a special place in our hearts for beer that are…not as great, shall we say. Some would call them crap. On Sunday, Thalia Hall celebrates those beers with Crap Beer Day.

What are the details about this magical event, you ask? Here they are, as provided to us by Thalia Hall:


UPDATE: The event is now free to attend, and taking place in the Tack Room. So what’s the deal with the free stuff? Well, we’ve got a $20 gift card that you can redeem on Crap Beer Day at Tack Room.  They’ll also  have Tack Room cocktails and the Dusek’s snack menu available as well as all of the crap beer offerings, so it can be used  towards any of those offerings.

*END UPDATE*


WHAT:

Ever wanted to enjoy the Champagne of Beers like you would enjoy actual champagne? Ball out with 40 oz. of Crap, that is A 40 of High Life with bottle service and champagne flutes for just $5. Chow down at the Crap Beer Day cook-in, plating some of the tastiest snacks that you can wash down with $1 Crap beers including Tiger, Old Milwaukee and Hamm’s. Other crap menu gems include a $3 Crap Shoot (a shot of Malört), a Ménage à Crap (i.e. a crap beer, shot of Malört and a hot dog for $8), or a Bucket of Crap with five crap beers for $10. Constructively channel your competitive nature against friends and strangers alike with classic backyard games like corn hole and bocce from American Bocce Co. while the band Hairbanger’s Ball belts out epic hair-metal anthems live onstage. 

WHEN:

And if you make it to Thalia Hall before the Crap Beer Day festivities begin at 5:00 p.m., stop into Dusek’s for some fine brunch that you’ll find makes for some excellent crap beer belly timber. The tunes kick off at 7:00 p.m. while the crap beer flows with abandon starting at 5:00 p.m.

We loved this event last year, and we’re glad we can share the entertainment with y’all. Here’s what it looked like when were were there last year. Sadly, there will be less square dancing than last year, but I imagine glam metal covers will more than suffice:
