It’s time to embrace the winter and mark your calendars for a first Ice Ice Bash at Glass + Griddle, 1130 N. 9th St., Feb. 8-10.
During the weekend-long event, which will take place in the expansive beer garden in front of the restaurant, guests will be treated to a variety of treats at the venue's extensive ice bar, including ice mugs filled with a variety of taps from Milwaukee Brewing Company, hot drinks from Elijah Craig and Stoli and shots served in special ice shot glasses.
A portion of the beer garden will be decked out with heated tents, perfect for guests to use to warm up their tootsies.
The Ice Bash is weather dependent, and rain dates will be implemented as needed. Additional information about the event will be posted on Facebook.
