This holiday season, stick it to the mall. Shopping’s way better with beer and black jack.
On Friday, November 25 and Saturday, November 26, we’re having Black Jack shopping at the brewery. We’ll deal you a hand of black jack at the door, and your score will be the percentage off you’ll receive in our gift shop. Plus, you’ll get 2 beer tokens with any purchase and a free gift for purchases of $50 or more.
And screw that crack-of-dawn sale bullshit. On Friday, we’re open from 4 to 8 pm and Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.

Thursdays kind of suck. Sandwiched between Hump Day and the beginning of the weekend, Thursday’s a day that everyone tolerates, but no one loves.
Until now.
Thirsty Thursday Growler Fill starts tomorrow at the brewery. From 3 to 8 pm, we’re filling growlers and giving $2 off our regular tour prices, each and every Thursday.

An American trucker battles and ancient Chinese sorcerer living under the streets of San Francisco…there’s some “Big Trouble in Little China” going on, and you get to see all the action with a Flying Dog beer in hand.
The next screening in our movie series at Frederick’s Weinberg Center is this Wednesday, October 26. The show starts at 7:30 pm, but join us at The Cellar Door starting at 5:30 pm for pre-show pints. They’re offering $1 all Flying Dogs; plus, the first 20 people who come with their Weinberg ticket get a free pint on us!
Tickets for the movie are just $7 (and $5 for seniors and students). To get yours, visit The Weinberg Center’s website or go to their box office at 20 West Patrick Street in downtown Frederick, MD.

While all eyes are on craft beer in Baltimore, we’re shifting the attention to where Baltimore needs a little work.
This Friday, during Baltimore Beer Week, we’re partnering with Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake to build a house in the Jefferson Street neighborhood.
After the build, the Flying Dog team is closing the day with a Habitat fundraiser at Langermann’s in Canton from 6 to 10 pm. We hope to not only raise money for Habitat throughout the night, but also work with the organization to thank their ongoing volunteers for their countless hours of service.
Langermann’s has agreed to donate $1 from all Flying Dog pints purchased that night to Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake. We’ll also buy the first beer for any existing Habitat volunteer or person who donates or signs up to volunteer with Habitat that night.
For more information on how you can get involved with Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake, visit its website at HabitatChesapeake.org.

Your inspiration? EACH OTHER.
Your challenge? COMMUNICATION.
Your criteria? FRAMES.
For entrants in this year’s 72 Film Fest, sponsored by yours truly, it shouldn’t be hard to find inspiration from their fellow film comrades. But there’s a catch: Every team is given a beginning and ending frame for their movie, taken from stills from various 72 Film Fest entries throughout the festival’s first five years. Exactly how these beginning and ending shots tie into a film is up to the entrants, but they must treat them like storyboards and do their best to recreate camera angles, settings, characters, and props.
But there’s another catch: One team’s ending frame is the next team’s beginning frame — a progression that continues through all of the entrants. Teams are encouraged (but not required) to communicate with each other and potentially collaborate on various aspects of each team’s movie.
Understood? Now, GO! This criteria was revealed to entrants LAST NIGHT. Now, in a race against time, each entered team has ONLY 72-HOURS (hence the name) to create their movie.
Then, they have a work week to recover before their masterpieces are screened. All entries will be screened at the Weinberg Center for the Arts on Friday, October 7 starting at 6 pm.
Saturday, October 8 is the main event, where the judges’ finalists and audience choice films will be screened at the Weinberg at 7:30 pm. A winner will be crowned that night and can then celebrate at our 72 Film Fest after party at Bentz Street Sports Bar. Starting at 10 pm, Bentz Street will have $1 off all Flying Dog and live music from Lucas and the Lovelys. Plus, the first 50 people will get a free pint!
Join us October 7-8 as we support local creativity! For more information on the festival, visit the 72 Film Fest website. To purchase tickets to the 72 Film Fest screenings, visit the Weinberg Center for the Arts website.
