Artist-in-Residence Pop-Up
Mar
15

Artist-in-Residence Pop-Up

🚨 Cancelled due to weather 🚨

🚨 Closing at 5pmr 🚨

Please meet Mark Arnold, our current Artist in Residence at Working Draft! 

Mark specializes in oil painting, and this quarter he is showcasing rural landscapes and scenes of rural southern Wisconsin, such as Lodi, Paoli, and Baraboo. As you’ll see in the selections here, he captures the serenity of rural Wisconsin, highlighting the wooded expanses, bodies of water, and rocky bluffs that generations of Wisconsin residents and visitors have enjoyed for many years. 

We find a depth to each work that may owe itself to Mark’s slow and steady approach. When asked about his process, Mark says, “I average about eighty painting sessions a summer. Each suitable day I set up at 10:00 am and then again at 4:00 pm. Usually four different paintings are rotated throughout the summer. I had thought that this would allow for faster work than my studio paintings, however, during the past forty two years 170+ paintings have been completed.”

We’re very excited to have Mark in the taproom on Sunday, 3/15, from 2pm - 3:30pm to talk about his craft. Please join him (and us!) to enjoy and appreciate his artistic vision!

Sign up for the 1pm Mocktail Class - Sold Out

Sign up for the 2:30pm Mocktail Class - Sold Out

Sign up for the 4pm Mocktail Class - Sold Out

Dry January doesn’t have to mean boring drinks or sitting on the sidelines. This January, we’re excited to offer something a little different — an interactive N/A Cocktail Class designed to explore the growing world of spirit-free drinks and how to use them creatively.

Join us Saturday, January 24 for a hands-on, educational (and delicious) experience where we’ll dive into the art of non-alcoholic cocktails. During the class, we’ll sample a flight of spirit-less liquor alternatives, talk through what makes each one unique, and explore how they can be used to build balanced, thoughtful “cocktails” without the booze.

Mitch will guide the class through:
— An introduction to several popular non-alcoholic spirits
— How these alternatives are made and what to expect flavor-wise
— Techniques for building N/A cocktails that still feel complex and intentional
— Tips you can use at home to elevate your own zero-proof drinks
— A step by step guided experience of making 2 N/A cocktails

Whether you’re participating in Dry January, taking a break from alcohol, or just curious about what’s out there beyond soda, N/A beers and tonics, this class is for you. No prior cocktail experience required — just an open mind and a thirst for learning.

Space will be limited, so keep an eye out for sign-up details and come join us for a fun, flavorful way to rethink Dry January.

And we’ll have NA beer on tap, a mocktail, and hop water on tap all month.

We’re hoping to have a food pop-up on Saturday the 24th as well!

Cheers to trying something new — with or without alcohol 🍹

A Perfect Sunday with Packers - Booyah - Meat Raffle

Join us Sunday, December 7th, for A Perfect Sunday!

What makes up A Perfect Sunday? Here’s what’s on our list:

  • The Packers play the Bears at 3:25. We’ll have the game (and sound) on the TV.

  • Green and Gold jello shots and other fun drink specials.

  • A Meat Raffle with meat from Jenifer Street Market starting at 2pm.

  • A big pot of Green Bay Booyah. BOOYAH!!!

Expect a cozy taproom full of flannels, Packer jerseys, friends, and people bargaining over meat raffle wins. Expect the smell of Booyah drifting through the brewery. Expect loud cheers, louder groans (hopefully not too many!), and probably someone screaming “MEAT!” at least once every 10 minutes. In other words - A Perfect Sunday.

Come hungry, come thirsty, and come ready for some classic Wisconsin fun. See you on December 7th!
