Pints, Lights & Festive Nights: December at REd Bird

The lights are twinkling, the air is crisp, and at Red Bird we’re leaning into everything we love about the holidays. December is a season for gathering, and we’ve got plenty of reasons to celebrate, festive markets, cozy live music, family-friendly fun, and nights full of games and good cheer.

Our taps are stocked with fresh brews, the brewery is decked out in holiday decor, and there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Over at Red Bird Roasting and Vice & Virtue Brewing, we’re also running fundraisers in support of JoeAnna’s House, a chance to give back, support families in medical need, and spread some kindness throughout our community.

From the Brewery

The Red Bird fridge is fully stocked and ready for the holidays! We’ve just canned our new Ogopogo POG Sour, a bright and refreshing addition we’re excited to share.

Swing by to snag your favourites, and give the newest addition a try!
