Fat Tuesday in Madison: Abita, Sazeracs & Jazz

Celebrate Fat Tuesday in Madison at Bierock by honoring a trio of New Orleans and Louisiana traditions.

On Tuesday February 25, we will tap a keg of Abita beer, put a Sazerac cocktail on special and feature a playlist of New Orleans jazz over the house sound system.

On this date, Bierock will tap a keg of Abita Brewing Company’s Wrought Iron India Pale Ale with one-day-only special pricing.

Allow your jaw to drop with pints available at $4 each and only $3 during Happy Hour from 3 to 6 p.m.

Located in Abita Springs, Louisiana, just north of New Orleans, Abita Brewing is synonymous with the Mardi Gras celebration in the Crescent City.

Likewise, Wrought Iron is symbolic of the many balconies in New Orleans lining the Mardi Gras parade route, Bourbon Street and all over the city.

“Abita Wrought Iron IPA embodies the resilient, indestructible nature of New Orleans,” according to the brewery. “This india pale ale is forged with the intensity of Apollo, Ekuanot and Mosaic Hops. Brewed with pale ale malt for a golden color as bright as iron from a fiery forge.”

Also on Tuesday, Bierock will have a New Orleans classic cocktail, the Sazerac, on special.

Bierock puts a Wisconsin twist on the drink by making it with Dancing Goat Limousin rye whiskey along with Pernod and Angostura bitters and sugar. Savor this premium liquor at $10.

Finally, allow your evening to have a soundtrack featuring New Orleans jazz. Surround sound speakers will highlight legends like Kermit Ruffins, Dr. John and more.
