In January Little Sober Bar is launching its first collaborative drink in conjunction with Reformation Brewery. All the Bitter, a company that makes alcohol-free bitters handmade with organic functional botanicals for gut health, is also collaborating on the NA cocktail.

The NA drink is a pomegranate old fashioned cocktail, traditionally a whiskey-based drink made of sugar and bitters, but in this case featuring oak aged NA bitters from All the Bitter, which adds caramel and oak notes to the sweet flavors of the pomegranate juice.

“We created the formula and Reformation Brewery will produce the beverage. This is the first non-alcoholic collaboration they are doing, and ours as well,” Hyde said. “We had been talking about this for a while and it made sense for it to launch during Dry January.”

Cadence Fair, which celebrates the brewery’s anniversary, has taken place on one day annually since the first event in 2017. This year, it has been extended to three days to give the community more time to enjoy live music, food and activities.

Hours for the fair are set for 3 to 10 p.m. Oct. 25, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Oct. 26 and noon to 9 p.m. Oct. 27 at Reformation Brewery’s downtown Woodstock location, 105 Elm St.

Cadence Fair has historically been one of our favorite and most well attended events, so it just made sense to extend it to the entire weekend so we could enjoy the moment a little longer and make use of the setup over a longer window,” said Jessica Miller, marketing director for Reformation Brewery.

The brewery had a “potions” menu, non-alcoholic butterbeer, a costume contest and photo opportunities.

In the Harry Potter books, Sept. 1 is the day students at the magic school Hogwarts travel to the campus for the year.

Transcript:

Hey, I’m John Miller, the general manager here at West Side Pizzeria and Bar. We’ve been around since, believe it or not, 2004. We’re now located at the West Side Village Shopping Center off Marietta Boulevard, and we’re approaching our 20th year serving craft beer.

We always want to support the local guys, and we probably have some of the best pizza you’ll find in Atlanta.

I’ve worked for the company for a long time, which has given me the opportunity to try a lot of different beers and meet a lot of great people.

One of those great beers is definitely Reformation’s Oktoberfest. This is my favorite time of the year for beers, especially craft beers, because breweries always put out their best versions of classic styles. Märzen styles are definitely my number one favorite, and Reformation puts out the best Oktoberfest every year. I feel privileged and lucky to try all different styles from various breweries—imports, crafts, local—and to have them at my bar and at home.

It’s perfect out of the can and perfect on tap. I love having it as an option and introducing it to others. I encourage you to try other Oktoberfests, but if you want a standout choice, Reformation’s Oktoberfest is the best option.

They make other great beers and have excellent locations, but this is the one I always go to. It has the perfect amount of maltiness and drinkability. People like to throw around the term “session beer,” and this is truly a perfect session Oktoberfest.

It’s a beer you can enjoy one after another, with a good, toasty, hoppy mouthfeel. It’s my favorite time of year.

“Building great memories and a sense of feeling more connected to each other are our top markers of success. Our biggest reward is being a small part of you living your best life, with Reformation in hand. Great service and quality beverages are an important piece of that success, but so is cultivating connected communities who love and support one another. It’s our greatest privilege to see you celebrate your moment at our venues and make memories together.”

“For the third year in a row, Reformation Brewery, with locations in Woodstock, Canton and Smyrna, will brew a beer in support of Shepherd’s Men, a local veterans advocacy group.

This year’s beer, known as Shepherd’s Men Clarity lager, will also be available at more than 20 other metro area outlets.”

Shepherd’s Men is inviting the community to join its march from Canton to Woodstock May 27, Memorial Day, to honor those who have died serving their country.

The march, which will span 12 miles, will include carrying a 160-pound barrel to symbolize the weight of sacrifice to honor those who have lost their lives in service to the nation.
