WEDNESDAY, August 24th

Bike, Hike, and Brews at Hagley Museum and Library

Bike and Hike runs 5 to 8 p.m. every Wednesday through August 31. Stroll, jog, or cycle a three-mile loop from Hagley’s Visitor Center to Eleutherian Mills and back. Participants can explore parts of the picturesque, 235-acre property not usually open to visitors. For the last time in 2016, Bike, Hike, and Brews adds to the fun with Dogfish Head beers and special menu items at the Belin House Organic Café. The star of the special menu will be sliders, of chicken or pork, with the style changing each evening.

Visit the Tasting Room at the new Dew Point Brewing Company in Yorklyn

The tasting room at Dew Point Brewing Company is located on the second floor of its brew house. Come enjoy Dew Point brews while sitting with friends or watching a game. If fresh air is more your thing, grab a growler and take advantage of the private green space right outside the doors. Dew Point does not prepare any food, but you are welcome to bring a snack or picnic with you! Dew Point is actively recruiting food trucks to set up on the premises, so if your stomach is growling, don’t hesitate to check out what’s cooking outside! Sunday hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Two Stones Pub Newark, Two Stones Pub Wilmington, Two Stones Pub Kennett, and Two Stones Pub Hockessin are pouring Yards Brewing Co. PYNK with proceeds going to the Tyanna Foundation

Yards PYNK is a beer like no other. We add 3,300 pounds of sour and sweet cherries and raspberries to each batch, resulting in a tart berry ale that’s effervescent and pleasantly pink in color. Delighting the palate, this light-bodied brew finishes refreshingly dry. We are proud to donate 1 dollar from every case and 5 cents from every pint of PYNK sold to breast cancer research and awareness. Since 2013, we’ve raised over $18,000 for the Tyanna Foundation!
