Private events

Birthdays, showers, work happy hours, family celebrations, or just a good excuse to get everyone together—we can close the taproom to the public and make it yours.

Bring your own food, catering, games, decorations, and Spotify playlist. We'll handle the beer and drinks.

Our Ravenswood taproom is a relaxed spot for birthday parties, showers, and corporate happy hours, best suited to groups of about 40 people or fewer.
