Saint Arnold Army Newsletter

Dear Saint Arnold's Army:

 

Get Married by Saint Arnold at Big Brew This Weekend
 
The past couple of years at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver, we've set up a wedding chapel and St. Arnold himself has married hundreds of couples. We've married groups of people, we've married people to their beers. Why do we do this? Well, it's a whole lot of fun.

When Big Brew takes over the George R. Brown Convention Center this week, you'll have the same opportunity to get married by us. At both sessions of the Grand Tasting on Saturday, we'll be setting up the wedding chapel and performing ceremonies. Of course, we'll be pouring beer there as well, in our Saint Arnold Beer Garden right next to the chapel.

While we mostly do these ceremonies for fun, we encourage you to let us know if you'd like an official wedding. Our employees on hand are actually ordained ministers. Email Lennie at lennie@saintarnold.com if you're interested.

Leading up to Saturday's Grand Tasting sessions, you'll also find us at The Great Match food pairing event and the Texas Brewed brewery showcase. Both events are at the GRB as well.

The 2014 Foamraiser at the Orange Show Monument
Saturday, November 29 - 7:00 - 10:00 PM
 
Every year, we team up with the Orange Show Center for Visionary Art for their Foamraiser, an evening of music, art and beer. This event is a great opportunity to hang out at the one-of-a-kind Orange Show Monument, while supporting its preservation.

We'll be there with the beer (we've got something special up our sleeve), and live music will be provided by The Wandering Bufaleros and Fire Moth. Hilarious comedy sketches will grace the side stage.

Get your tickets in advance now for $20 or purchase them for $25 at the door. Get all the information and tickets on their website.

Thank you for the support! We hope to see you here soon for lunch or our public tour. 

 

Cheers!
