HAPPY FRIDAY!!! … and THANK YOU to everyone that came out to the memorabilia auction/sale benefiting Independent Animal Rescue it was such a wonderful event, truly amazing people that work and volunteer there.
I went by today to visit and it’s SO DIFFICULT to not commit to another sweet 🐾

We raised $13,050 for their cause!!! THANK YOU!! No matter if you wanted a little piece of history or just to support, it’s going to MANY animals in need.

Special thanks to our BADASS CREW for volunteering their time, so many of our SWEET REGULARS 😘 and Durham businesses stopping by- honorable mention Mike from The Green Room.

Sending ONLY GOOD VIBES! 💫 have a fabulous weekend!!

This weekend we finish everything up in selling the memorabilia that’s last of what’s left of Sam’s and while we have been posting so much about THAT we’d like to pause and showcase a story we REALLY love for the Bottle Shop-

In 2017 some sweet customers Sarah and Brian got engaged and celebrated that with weekly planning meetings here, in fact they never stopped that “date” they brought Brian’s sister from Arkansas, Sarah’s Mom from Charlotte, and almost always accompanied by their sweet dog Gus, who had perfect attendance, ATTIRE and behavior!!!
Stories like these should be celebrated and we want them to live on … THANK YOU SARAH AND BRIAN for the memories. You are VERY special and we are grateful. - SBS Family

PS- Brian I know you’re cropped out of one photo, please forgive us.

We can’t wait to see you! Yes, this one time because of the age of some of the items and nature of their display we will be limiting this event and not allowing children or pets of any kind … the irony!!

Yes we will have beer. 🍺
And our friends from Death By Taco will be here fixing up tasty treats!!

A tragic loss in the beer community this week. Our thoughts are with Dan’s family and everyone at Wooden Robot Brewery. May each of you be surrounded by love and healing.

Support For The Family of Dan Wade

Dan was our leader, our founder, and our friend. He was not just a passionate brewer, he was the heart and soul of us.

Thank you for considering a donation, and please share this campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Together, we can make a difference for Dan Wade’s family.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The Wooden Robot Family
