This is what I show. But it is a Google based calendar and may be a

> about getting there at 6:30pm if traffic will be more favorable for you to
> get there at 8pm. Call us on 146.52MHz FM Simplex to let us know when
> you're close and we can direct you to our table. As far as their brews they
> have pilsners, saisons, porters, IPAs, and more. I'm especially looking
> forward to trying their *Mountain Berry Saison*. They *do fill growlers*
> so bring one if you want to fill up (I always keep one in my car in case I
> go by a great brewery and want to take some home LOL). They have food on
> site served by their own "Little Twiggy's" which sells bagel sandwiches if
> you want a bite to eat while there. Please come on out if you can! It's
> always a fun event.
