Grinnell Staff and Faculty Craft Beer Night

Lyle's Pub
Tuesday, October 23rd; 8:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.

Have you ever wondered what Lyle's Pub is, where it is, or what it looks like? We know that the majority of College employees have never been to Lyle's so we would like to have a Staff and Faculty focused event so that you can experience this cool piece of Grinnell student culture.

The staff of Lyle's would like to invite you to a Faculty and Staff Craft Beer Night at the Pub. The event will be the Tuesday of Fall Break (10/23) from 8:00-11:00pm. In addition to our regular selection, we will be featuring breweries such as Goose Island (IL), Millstream (IA), and Capital Brewery (WI). Lyle's Pub is located in the basement of the JRC and will be closed to students for the purpose of this event.

We hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity to spend a fun evening in Lyle's Pub with your colleagues. If you have any questions, please direct them to Dan Hirsch [hirschd], Assistant Director of Residence Life. Have a great rest of the week and we hope to see you Tuesday!
