This is a return visit to one of our most popular breweries. Enjoy Bourbon Barrel Aged Oat Nog Stout, Windy Answer Hazy IPA, Chadwick Porter, Entwife Rye Dark, Millville Rouge (Belgian Framboise), Extra Huy (Vietnamese Coffee Stout), Silk Upholstered Chair (Vienna lager), and Capricious Curator IPA, among others!  (From Billy Penn);   When the former owner of Nodding Head teams up with a former Dogfish Head brewer, you get some really fantastic beer. Most of it is in classic, non-crazy styles, but with slight variations that make them interesting — this is a brewpub, so all batches are small.”


Event Limit: 16 FitC Members


Event Cost$16 ($15 per person for a flight of four beers (4 4-oz. pours with tax and tip) + $1 FitC fee).  Deadline for registration, cancellation with refund (less $2 FitC Refund Fee), and receipt of your check (if you are not paying online):  December 27, 2025.  


Accessibility:  The entrance, seating area, and bathrooms are wheelchair and walker accessible. There is one small step at the entrance.


Parking/Transportation:

The brewery is located at 1939 S. Bancroft Street just north of Snyder.  Parking is somewhat difficult to find in this residential neighborhood. Public transportation is a much better option:


a)     Take the Broad Street Line (B1) south to the Snyder Avenue stop.  Walk north from Snyder to McKean, then west to Bancroft, a small street just west of 16th Street. 

b)     From 17th and Market take Bus#2 south to 17th and McKean.  Walk east to 1939 S. Bancroft. If you get to 16th Street, you’ve walked too far!  The brewery is on the corner of McKean and Bancroft.

C)    Take Bus #4 south from 15th and Market to Broad and McKean.  Walk west .2 miles to 1939 S. Bancroft Street (just west of 16th).

d)     For other public transportation options, consult:   https://plan.septa.org/#/ or   https://www.google.com/maps/dir 


If you need to cancel with a refund before the deadline, please contact Linda Pizzi (lindapizzi55@gmail.com).  For questions on the visit, please contact Cheri Micheau (phoebejack1@verizon.net). 


If you must cancel after the deadline, please contact Cheri. Please do not contact Heather Speirs for any reason, before or after the deadline.
