Now, you all know how much I love our military and veterans (okay, it’s really my humans who love them, but since they feed me, I’m claiming it too). Well, Patrick, Matt, their families, staff, and the whole community are some of the most generous folks you’ll ever meet. Every year, these legends fundraise thousands of dollars for Shepherd’s Men and the SHARE Military Initiative. They even brew a special beer called 22 Pale Ale to honor our military, and a portion of the proceeds goes to Shepherd’s Men. Talk about brewing with a purpose! If I had thumbs, I’d give them a standing ovation!
Now, let’s get to the good stuff—the beer! You can usually find anywhere from 12 to 16 beers on tap, and my humans have tried them all. One of their favorites is Mango Tango, which is a sour that’s so sneaky you wouldn’t even know it’s sour—like a ninja in a tutu! It has a hint of habanero, and the sweet and spicy combo is so good it should come with a warning label: “May cause spontaneous happy dances!”
Then there’s Buck’s Frosty Balls. Yes, you read that right! But be careful, because for my pint-sized human, that 7% ABV will sneak up on you faster than I can steal a snack off the coffee table! They’ve also recently introduced a “hard tea” that’s so tasty it’ll have you feeling like you’re lounging on a beach, even if you’re just sitting in a parking lot!
If you find yourself in Copperhill and Patrick (the bearded wonder with fairy string) isn’t around, don’t fret! Look for Tina, who’ll whip you up a tie-dye that’s as colorful as my personality. And if you’re a dawg fan, you’ve got to meet Jake—he’s basically famous! Just ask him about his book; it’s a real page-turner! And don’t forget Lilly; she’s always ready to dish out belly rubs like they’re going out of style.
If you venture over to Murphy, make sure to say hi to Matt. He’s the best! You won’t miss him—he’s the tall guy covered in tattoos who always has good pets and cuddles for us dogs. Seriously, if you’re not getting belly rubs from him, you’re doing it wrong!
So, if you’re looking for great brews, amazing humans, and a place that gives back to the community, Buckbald Brewery is the place to be! Cheers to good times, great friends, and the best belly rubs around! 🍻🐾
