3 Craft Beer Events Hit LA on April 4

To the average craft beer fan, the coming of spring doesn’t just mean light and refreshing seasonal brews…it means event season has come. From here on out, you will find no shortage of events from beer festivals, anniversary parties, to special releases. To kick off the season, here are three craft beer events happening in the greater Los Angeles area on Saturday, April 4, 2015.

Tony’s Darts Away 5th Anniversary | 10am
Tony Yanow’s local gem located in Burbank celebrates five years of craft beer excellence with it’s #TDA5th anniversary party. Guests can enjoy specialty tappings every hour on the hour from 10am-7pm. The two-day event will feature some of TDA’s most special cellared brews including kegs of Russian River’s Concescration & Supplication, Firestone Walker’s 2013 Parabola, and Lost Abbey’s 2013 Spontaneous Cheer. Hop heads will enjoy the return of Darts Away IPA — sister company Golden Road Brewing’s annual tribute brewed in collaboration with the TDA staff. Full details here.

Pink Boots Society LA’s Unite Red Ale Release | 12pm
Head to Three Weavers Brewing Company in Inglewood on Saturday to try Unite Red Ale. Brewed during International Women’s Collaboration Brew Day earlier this month, this hoppy red features generous amounts of Cascade, Chinook, El Dorado, and Jaryllo hops. The beer was developed by the Pink Boots Society’s Los Angeles Chapter with Three Weavers Brewmaster Alexandra Nowell at the helm. Expect this brew to hit limited local distribution at some of LA’s craftiest accounts. A portion of proceeds from this brew will benefit the Pink Boots Society’s national scholarship fund.

Game of Thrones + Ommegang Third Eye Raven Launch at Blue Palms | 1pm
It’s been a while since we’ve seen a new Game of Thrones beer from Brewery Ommegang. Once again, Hollywood’s Blue Palms Brewhouse will be going all out to promote the launch of Third Eye Raven,  a saison released just in time for spring. Tickets to this event include a commemorative glass, your first pout of Third Eye Raven, and an order of tasty Third Eye Raven wings from the Blue Palms kitchen. Did we mention the photo booth with the Iron Throne? Come in costume and you might win a prize — if that’s your kind of thing. You’ll find us in the bar enjoying an special taplist for the occasion featuring other Ommegang brews (sup, Three Philosophers?) along side some other similar styles such as Boulevard’s Tank 7 saison.
