American Craft Beer Week 2023 is upon us! Join us all week long at The Ruck as we showcase breweries and individual beers we’ve been holding on to for a special occasion! Each day this week will feature great beer and great breweries to celebrate craft beer and the community that comes with it!

“Leverage the biggest and best national beer week ever. May 15-21 is the week to galvanize beer lover support for small and independent U.S. breweries, providing a boost in excitement among the beer community as we head into spring!”

For Thursday of American Craft Beer Week, we will be showcasing a brewery that we are excited to help burst out onto the local scene. Strangebird Beer out of Rochester has been making great beer out in WNY and Dave has had them on his radar to get their beer on our tap lines. Great week to get them on, and we’re so excited!
We’ll be featuring 3 of their beers:

Unfettered Soul
Imperial IPA – 7.5% - Double dry-hopped Unfettered Soul with huge doses of Mosaic and Australian Galaxy. It is medium-bodied and supremely balanced.

Petit Colosse
Table Beer – 4.5% - Belgian table beer that has seven different grains and styrian golding hops, which provide balance to the fruity Belgian-yeast derived notes.

Elegant 8°
Belgian Dubbel – 7% - Belgian Dubbel brewed with Belgian Pils, Munich, Biscuit, and Special Malts, Belgian Rock Candi; Styrian Golding hops; Holy Trappist yeast

American Craft Beer Week 2023 is here, and there’s no better time to celebrate this beautiful craft beer community that we are part of! Cheers!
