Flingers and White Oak go wayyy back. While the official histories date to the early 2000’s (even earlier, on personal notes), we both relaunched almost simultaneously, exploding into our current forms within weeks of each other back in September 2015. But believe it or not, our last White Oak tap takeover at the bar was in (*checks notepad*) …2018! Almost 6 years?! That’s malpractice! This injustice must end! So let’s end it.
Come kickoff a new generation of White Oak events with a Tap Takeover & Glass Giveaway starting at 4pm on Thursday, May 2. Here's the lineup, and more details:
Name: Into the Thick of It
Style: Bourbon Barrel-Aged Stout
ABV: 10.3%
Our Description: Huge imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels, bringing flavors of chocolatey cocoa, oak, bourbon, and dried stone fruits, with an almost Twizzlers-like sweetness. Smooth, rich, thick, boozy and incredible.
Name: Primo Quality
Style: Hazy IPA
ABV: 8.5%
Our Description: Big juicy haze featuring Cryo Simcoe, El Dorado, and Mackinac hops for a complex blast of flavors including tropical citrus, pineapple, watermelon, and papaya, plus an earthy, herbal, floral backbone. Soft, thick and fruity, it's the primo-est quality.
Name: Marty! You’ve Got to Come Back with Me!
Style: West Coast DIPA
ABV: 8.8%
Our Description: Let Rick & Mort- er, uh, Doc & Marty take you back in time to the days before the haze craze when West Coast IPAs fueled the craft beer boom. Loaded with Simcoe, Centennial, and Columbus hops, this incredibly tropical, bitter-boozy West Coast DIPA rules every timeline.
Name: Rye’d Up. Hop Out.
Style: Rye IPA
ABV: 7%
Our Description: Rye bread flavors with a little spice and big hoppiness. If you’ve never had a rye IPA, make this one your first. It's excellent.
Name: Let’s See if It Pays Off for ‘Em
Style: Hazy Pale Ale
ABV: 5.5%
Our Description: Hazy pale ale loaded with grapefruit and orange flavors, plus a subtle hint of bubblegum. Light, crisp, citrusy, and perfect with food.
Name: Ice Cold Tri
Style: American Kolsch
ABV: 4%
Our Description: Light, flavorful, well-balanced kolsch with a nice bright hoppiness. A little biscuity and caramelly with delicate floral hop flavors, this crisp, refreshing kolsch pairs with anything.
And while supplies last, when you buy a White Oak draft, you'll get to keep the glass (one per person). Plus, the White Oak crew will be on-site, giving things away and saying hello.
(White Oak keeper glass only available with purchase of White Oak draft. Keeper glasses are very limited, may not be the same as the one pictured here, and offer is only valid while supplies last. Strict limit of one keeper glass per person.)
Don't miss it. Thursday night, mark the dawn of a new era with White Oak at Flingers.
