Beat the Heat With Woody

Woody is a travelling tavern on wheels. It’s a giant wooden keg that opens up into a tavern, complete with stereo and disco ball.

Woody is from our pals at Deschutes Brewing. He’s in Tacoma today rolling around, and will be making a full-fledge stop at The Red Hot Wednesday Night @ 7pm until close. We’ll be pouring a ‘heat-friendly’ batch of beers on tap in the outdoor beer garden out of Woody: Deschutes Red Chair IPA (from Deschutes Bond Series of beers), Green Lakes Organic Amber, Twilight Ale, & Black Butte Porter. There may even be some surprise handles. All Deschutes handles are on special. The best part is we reworked the beer garden so it’s all in the shade. Hell. Yes. We’ll be on our “BBQ Menu” for the night due to increased capacity, but at least it’s easier on your purse strings…and your hot ass living room. We’re giving away shirts, hats, growlers, glasses, and even a Deschutes Skate deck.

It’s gonna be a damn good time!

#300

It’s that time again…

Today we put our 300th flavor on tap here at The Red Hot. Not our 300th keg, but our 300th different handle of beer we’ve put on tap. All before our 2nd Anniversary . Eugene, OR’s Ninkasi Brewing gets the nod with their Summer Seasonal, “Radiant”:

This means $3 pints of Radiant until it’s goners!

For a full list, go here (canned and bottled only do not count).

Red Hot Signage

Local great-guy-about-town, Peter Whitley, is one of our regulars. He’s done custom Red Hot skateboards, he’s done custom pieces for myself (wedding portrait I gave to wifey for 1-year Anniversary) and other TRH crew (custom set of Ramones Skateboards), and over the course of time, he’s been doing these TRH Staff portraits. He teamed up with Chris Sharp and made this totally bad-ass art project to “get to know your TRH Staff”. Check it:

Sign by Chris, wooden portrait placards by Pete. Look for a very cool art show we’re doing with Pete in the future!

In other TRH portrait news, wicked art wrangler Stowe is slinging ink on his own take of The Red Hot vs. The Parkway staff portraits as we speak for another Bearded Baby Buttons set. Totally killer!

Red Hot Art on the Ave

Art on the Ave is back! We’ll be opening at 11 am this Sunday. We’ll have a sidewalk table (featuring a brown-bag special for those who want a meal on the go…all beef hot dog, bag of chips, moon pie, and a RC Cola) and seating set up out front on the Ave (rest your feet and grab some eats), and we’ll have an outdoor beer garden set up out back (with an additional 4 handles pouring out back as well) with tons of seating. You can even duck inside for an air conditioning break. It’s always a killer time. I hear the Fashion Show next door at The Wedding Bell will be making a trip thru our beer garden as well.

If you hate crowds, the AOTA stuffs is over at 5, & we’ll be open to our regular Sunday close time of 10pm. Word.
