Our beloved rep Jonathan Van Sickle is leaving his position at Craft Beer Guild Distributing of New York, so let's send him off the only way that we can, having him fill the tap lines! To celebrate the changing of the times, he wanted to throw his party at The Ruck, a place he has gotten fantastic brews on the taps over the years. Let's get everyone together to celebrate the hard work JVS has put in, while we get some epic drafts in store so we can celebrate the right way! Stay tuned for details as we populate the list of beers! Stay tuned!

We sold 500 Cases of Carlsberg this year, and that makes us the #1 selling Carlsberg Bar in the country! So let's celebrate! We all know the classic Carlsberg -- It is a 5% abv pilsner beer, also known as Carlsberg Lager, Carlsberg Beer and Carlsberg Pilsner. It was first brewed in 1904, and was created by Carl Jacobsen, son of Carlsberg's founder JC Jacobsen. We we're just recently informed that we sold our 500th case, so let's have some fun with Carlsberg! Road Sodas will be joining us for the evening playing Acoustic punk/rock covers. If you're a fan of: Dead Kennedys, Blink 182, Misfits, Violent Femmes... these guys are for you. When Road Sodas play, you know it's a party. And this time, it's celebrating The Ruck being the #1 bar in sales of Carlsberg for the year! Cheers!
Kick the keg night!!! Tonight!!!
