If you love trivia nights, craft beer, and delicious scratch-made food, you may very well want to join us as we present our very own Working Draft Trivia Night - taking place every Wednesday through the end of May 2019!

Hosted by the world famous, Mat "The Wiz" Adams, our WDBC Trivia night will start at 7pm and offers a bounty of prizes and intellectual excitement. Teams of 4 are encouraged, but we can easily make anything work within trivia reason.

And in an effort to keep your brains fueled and agile, we're also introducing a brand new, rotating *NACHO* plate to the WDBC kitchen menu - created exclusive for our Trivia Night Wednesdays!

Many thanks to Mat for working so hard to bring this brain-busting event to the WDBC taproom, and we'll look forward to spending 2019 alongside our trivia-loving brethren!

Mat "One T" Adams. He's a man who defies convention, and a man of many talents. From crafting killer kitchen items, to shredding on the drums, to using brewhouse equipment as battle gear - he's got you covered. And on Tuesday, 2/12 we're hosting the very first Mat-Stravaganza in the WDBC taproom!

What exactly happens at Mat-Stravaganza, you ask? WELL - how about:
🍺 The release of Mat's *Crew Brew* 'The King Lord Ringus' Belgian IPA crafted with Mosaic and Galaxy hops at 3pm

Join 702WI at Working Draft Beer Company on Thursday, January 24th at 7pm for a talk and Q&A with author Jim Draeger about his book Bottoms Up: A Toast to Wisconsin's Historic Bars & Breweries. Draeger will share fun and entertaining stories about Wisconsin bars and breweries, and Working Draft will serve up a special flight of beer paired to his talk! A book signing will follow.

Bottoms Up celebrates Wisconsin's taverns and the breweries that fueled them. The book traces the development of the megabreweries, dominance of the giants, and the emergence of microbreweries. Contemporary photographs of unusual and distinctive bars and breweries of all eras, historical photos, postcards, advertisements, and breweriana illustrate the story of how Wisconsin came to dominate brewing and the place that bars -- and beer -- hold in our social and cultural history.

New Year, New WDBC! And one of the most exciting taproom plans for 2019 is the growth of our Music Mondays - with the first expanded schedule featuring Madison's own No Name String Band on Monday, 1/21 from 7-9pm!

The No Name String Band distills the heart of old-time fiddle music, latin rhythms, and jazz/funk improvisation into their uniquely new-time sound - and we honestly can't wait for them to join us for an amazing evening of local music, beer, and food!

Stay tuned for more updates as the show draws closer, and please check out their website for all kinds of glorious No Name String Band info: www.nonamestringband.com

DDH 'Pulp Culture' is BACK - and just in time for the holidays! This time jam-packed with mountains of Galaxy + Amarillo hops, this is one of our boldest hoppy endeavors to date and one we can't wait to share with the world on Friday, 12/21!!

As you may remember from the last DDH Pulp release, we worked with the amazing Kristine Lohman in designing 4 limited-edition, Warhol-inspired Pulp Culture labels, and this is the 2nd of those 4 designs (thanks, Kristine!). 

Here's the skinny:
- Unlike previous DDH Pulp releases, this one will be taking place on a Friday - with the first tapping and crowler sales *kicking off at 5pm SHARP*
- We'll only have around *200 crowlers available,* with a limit of 3 per customer (with handy 3-pack carriers to boot!)
- We will no longer be able to fill DDH Pulp crowlers once these initial cans have been sold
- And because stickers are awesome, we'll once again have some free limited-edition DDH Pulp stickers for anyone who grabs a crowler (along with a re-stock of our DDH Pulp tees!)
- Price TBD

Nothing says holiday kickoff party like a DDH Pulp release on Friday, 12/21, and we can't wait to see as many of your smiling faces as possible in a few weeks!

Join us on Friday, December 14th for the very first and sure-to-be-sensational Working Draft Holiday Market featuring local artists and artisans!!
