We are super excited to announce the 2026 Mug Club. Every week we hear about breweries making major changes to stay afloat or closing all together. Your support by joining our Mug Club means the world (and the math works out for you too)!
Each year, we try to change it up (in part so you don’t end up with another growler each year). Here’s how it’ll all work this year:
2026 Mug Club memberships will start immediately and will expire December 31, 2026.
Like last year, Mug Club is $100 and we’re limiting memberships to 90 members. However, if you had a spot last year, we’ll make sure you have a chance at a spot this year. So long as you renew your membership before the end of the year, you’ll get a spot.
Your membership is good for 15% off across the board on merchandise, glassware and your beers, cider wine and soda. Note that we still don’t have a means for discounting online orders because of our platform, but you can always stop in to order in the taproom and we’ll take care of you. Also note that because we extend wholesale pricing for our kegs, the State doesn’t allow us to discount the kegs further with Mug Club memberships.
Also, you get to participate in Mug Club Mondays when beers are $5/pour! Seriously, for those who like Monday Night Football… this is for you!
Your membership also makes you eligible for our quarterly Mug Club Collab (work with us on the style, recipe, brewing and packaging — as much or little as you like).
Your membership also gets you access to Mug Club events — special tastings, gatherings, beer discussions, etc.
Also, this year, we’ve sourced some awesome 32oz milk bottles to serve as some beautiful, beer-carrying growlers. And, with your membership, you’ll get two of them! These are resealable and they’re cheaper than Crowler cans. Fill them as a pair with the same beer or two different beers. We’ll just average the cost of the beers that you’re picking up. They come as a set with our logo on one of them and our lovely Mug Club Trash Panda on the other one.
Lastly, we’ve had a lot of couples who drink together and they’ve asked us to create another option for Mug Club memberships. So, this year, we’re adding another option: A Mug Club + One. When you register, we’ll prompt you with a form to name the other member on your Mug Club registration. You’ll get one set of the 32oz growlers, but you’ll both get all of the other Mug Club perks.
We’re handling registrations for Mug Club memberships online. If you’re buying a membership as a gift for someone unbelievably special to you, you can shoot us an email and we’ll move your registration over to that name so they get notifications about exclusive beer releases and gatherings this year.
