September at Bottle Theory: Events, Live Music & Our 5th Anniversary!
September is a BIG month at Bottle Theory. We’re celebrating five years in Apex, rolling out new weekend hours, welcoming live music back to the taproom, and filling the calendar with plenty of reasons to come hang out.
Whether you’re here every week for trivia, stopping by for a Friday wine tasting, or joining us for our biggest party of the year, here’s what’s happening at Bottle Theory this September!
🎉 We’re Turning FIVE! | Saturday, September 19
Give us FIVE! 🖐️
Five years ago, we opened the doors at Bottle Theory with a pretty simple idea: great drinks bring great people together. Five years, a whole lot of beer, and countless memories later, we’re ready to celebrate the people who made it all possible — YOU!
Join us Saturday, September 19 for our 5th Anniversary Party & Beer Fest, featuring some of our favorite breweries pouring special beers throughout the afternoon.
The Beer Fest will include unlimited samples and a commemorative 5th Anniversary tasting glass, with VIP guests getting early entry, an upgraded glass, and a few extra surprises.
And the celebration doesn’t end when the beer fest does! Stick around afterward as we keep the party going with live music on the patio, plus Cartel Tacos serving up dinner.
This is our biggest celebration of the year, and we’d love to raise a glass — and exchange a few high fives — with everyone who has been part of Bottle Theory over the last five years.
