This Friday, June 12, we’re celebrating Flag Day at Fraunces Tavern 🇺🇸

The day commemorates the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as the official flag of the United States. It’s a tradition with deep roots here at Fraunces Tavern, where so much of the country’s early history took shape.

The Sons of the Revolution will host their annual Flag Day Parade, one of the longest-running in New York City. The parade steps off from City Hall Park at noon and arrives outside Fraunces Tavern around 12.30pm.

The parade and ceremony are free and open to the public and no tickets are required. There will be live music in the Independence Bar from 4.30-7.30pm, and Fraunces Tavern Museum will offer $1 admission until 5pm.

Grimm - Lambo Door
NY / 8.0% ABV / 16 oz Can

The brewers call it “gummy bear juice” and they mean it. Lambo Door is a Northeast-style Double IPA, meaning more hops, more flavor, and a soft hazy juiciness rather than sharp bitterness. Brewed with Citra, El Dorado, and Simcoe added twice after fermentation (double dry-hopped, or DDH) to maximize tropical aroma without extra bite, it delivers a pillowy mouthfeel and an explosive burst of fruit that makes 8% incredibly easy to sip.

Monday Beer Highlight 🍺

Dutchess Ales Tempel Altbier
NY / 5.2% ABV / 16 oz Can

Altbier is a traditional German style from Düsseldorf. Brewed with ale yeast and conditioned like a lager, it offers the smoothness of a lager with the richer malt character of an ale. Expect toasted malt, subtle spice, and a clean, balanced finish.

Tempel is brewed with rich malts and noble hops, bringing toasted malt, treacle and spice aromatics, nutty complexity, subtle plum and juniper notes, with balanced hop freshness.
