The May 27 celebration runs from 1–10 p.m. at the taproom (670 N. Shore Dr., Benton Harbor, MI). Entry to the party itself is free for those who would like to purchase beer and food a la carte, while exclusive ticket packages can be purchased via Eventbrite. The $20 ticket package includes all-you- can-eat food—a crawfish boil and po’ boys served up by Bistro on the Boulevard—one beer token and a 16oz commemorative can glass. The $35 ticket package includes all of the above, plus a limited edition 750ml bottle of North Pier’s Oak-Aged Brett Saison.
Beyond the celebration of a full year in business, the retail can launch is the next stop on North Pier’s journey into the craft beer world, with draft selections already available at bars and restaurants. In early June, Buckrider and The Conjurer will both be available in 4 packs of 16oz tall cans at beer retailers throughout Southwest Michigan.
