Imbibers of the Month

Here at the Left Hand Tasting Room, we have an incredible group of regulars that become extensions of our family. We see these folks frequently, sometimes more than our own spouses, and they have played a big role in making Left Hand what it is today. Every month we like to mention those guests that went above the call of duty and visited us darn near every day during the last month. This month I’m thrilled to give a shout out to two returning Imbibers of the Month. Tom “Crash” and Martin “Henge” have been family here for several years. Henge is crazy smart and is known to blow your mind without any notice. Crash knows everybody and is always good for a laugh. You both rock. So, raise your glass with me as I honor Henge and Crash. Cheers!

Rocky Mountain Rollergirls

We’re on the third of eight bus trips down to the Rocky Mountain Rollergirls. The first three have sold out and they’re freakin crazy. Beer, roller derby, and a safe bus ride down and back, it was awesome! April’s bus trip is already SOLD OUT, but you can still sign up for the May 1st event. $27 guarantees you a night of fun, laughs, and great beer.

Repeal of Prohibition Party

Wednesday, April 7th is the 77th anniversary of the repeal of prohibition. Technically, President Roosevelt was just authorizing the sale of 3.2% beer and wine. So, for our party, we’re selling only 3.2% beer. Hah! Actually, we’re going to tap our 2nd of 3 casks of Chainsaw Double ESB. The cask will be tapped when we open at 3pm. You better get it before it’s gone.

Ski Jam at Mary Jane

It’s that time of year when we load up the van with kegs of beer, barbeques, couches, music, and of course our skis. Left Hand has hosted a Ski Jam for the last 2 years and we’re rolling out our 3rd on Sunday, April 18th at Mary Jane. Bring your sunscreen, shades, and camp chairs as we close out Mary Jane on their last day of the season. For more info contact Josh at Goldberg@lefthandbrewing.com.

Dinner at Jack’s Corner Café

Every few months we like to get away from behind the bar and sit down with our favorite guests for dinner. A brand new restaurant has opened up in town and we’re going to check it out. Jack’s Corner Café opened up on Airport/Nelson, and the crew from the Tasting Room are heading over there on Thursday, April 29th. They have a few Left Hand brews on tap, great tapas and burgers, and a fun vibe. Dinner is at 6:30pm and we only have 40 seats. To get on the list, contact Josh at Goldberg@lefthandbrewing.com.

Ales4FemAles

If you haven’t heard about the Ales4FemAles beer club for women by now, I don’t know where you’ve been. Left Hand hosts this group of ladies twice a month since it is so popular. The ladies discuss beer, learn about beer, pair beer with food, and just have a good time among fellow female beer lovers. In April, they’re meeting at 6:30pm on Monday the 5th and Monday the 19th. For info on topics or how to get on the list, send an email to ales4females@gmail.com.

Indian Peaks Alers

Are you thinkin’ about homebrewing? Are you an award winning homebrewer? Either way, Longmont’s very own homebrew club, the Indian Peaks Alers, meet at Left Hand every month and share their brews, judge their brews, and focus on a specific style of brews. They’ll meet Wednesday, April 14th at 6pm. There is food, beer, and great people. For more info, contact Kari at ipa.pres@gmail.com.
