Tractor is (finally) releasing three new canned ciders that have been a staple of their taps for a while now. Their Berry Cider, which has recently undergone a slight update, hits all the notes of what you think a berry cider should be, while still holding a little of that traditional cider magic on the back end. The Blood Orange Cider is the kind of late summer-style drink you’ve been missing in your life. Let the blood orange love in, and you won’t be able to turn back. Finally, the Rosé Cider rounds out the pack with some light and fresh flavors you expect from a rosé, with the sweeter hints of cider and other fruity notes. Be a part of the cider revolution, while enjoying live music from CW Ayon Combo. You can catch a piece of the action at Tractor Brewing in Wells Park on Thursday, March 21, starting at 5pm.

St. James Tearoom (320 Osuna Rd NE) is hosting a month-long Dublin’s Fare celebrating the contributions Arthur Guinness made to the world. The famous dark stout is now a staple of any solid St. Patrick’s Day celebration, but is even more so a fantastic way to add a kick to traditional food favorites. Offering up three teas to pair with a number of savories, breads, and sweets, you’ll find yourself leaving more than satisfied. With options like a Beef & Ale Pot of Gold with Cheese Biscuit, Guinness World Record Irish Soda Bread with Whiskey Butter, and a Créme de Menthe Chocolate cake, you’ll find something to make the most out of your post–St. Patrick’s Day blues (or greens, if you want to avoid a pinching).

Oni Noodles will be popping up at Sidetrack Brewing and Zendo (413 Second St SW) on March 23 from noon to 4pm, bringing their amazing ramen as well as steam buns to anyone hanging out and having a drink. We can say from personal experience that it’s hard to find something that doesn’t pair well with craft beer, so make sure to find a new favorite combo that you didn’t expect this weekend.
