2024 Spring Yardbird Pick-up Party

Sunday, May 5th, 1-4pm | Coal Shed Brewery

‍

Yardbirds, are you ready to get torched? 

‍

For this release, we're excited to unveil a brand new brew in our Workshop Series: Shop 26 Hazy IPA. Shop 26 was where Mare Island's welding wizards turned molten metal into Navy ships. It's also where thousands of "Wendy the Welders" made history, becoming a vital part of the Island's workforce during WWII.

‍

Come celebrate this Spring's Yardbird release with...

‍

• Live music on the waterfront, featuring Joyce Grant
• Cold pints, and tasty bites from Exec. Chef David and team
• Experience the history of Shop 26, including an appearance from the descendants of "Sweet Alice" Hanneman (one of Mare Island's most famous Wendy the Welders), historical artifacts from Shop 26, and local Mare Island artist Jean Cherie will be here with her "Wendy the Wendy" sculpture on display
• The Yardbird Games: We're bringing back a fun-for-everyone classic from the early years
• Pick-up your Spring Yardbird Case after the party
• And a few more surprises....
