 Killer Matt Fest + Cribbage

Tuesday, October 24

5:00-10:00pm

The BeerMongers – 1125 SE Division – Portland, OR

With our revolving yearly event of Name Fest shenanigans, 2017 will be the year of Matt. Back in 2011 BREWPUBLIC's Angelo De Ieso decided that there were a rather significant number of brewers named Ben. So, Ben Fest was brought to life. Since that fateful day at the Grain and Gristle it was decided that other packs of similarly named craft beer personnel were in need of their own special days. Sean Fest, Mike Fest, Chuck Fest, Chris Fest and Dave Fest followed. This year we honor the Matt's of the craft beer world with this special night at The BeerMongers. Look for beers and appearances from brewers named Matt from Alesong, Double Mountain, Hopworks Urban Brewery, Pint’s, Rogue and more!

Tuesday night is also the weekly night of cribbage at The BeerMongers. Cribbage game boards will be available but if you have a lucky one from home feel free to bring it along.
