Star Wars Beer Tapping: Maltering the Deal
The dark side is taking over the brewhouse! The halls of Echo Base shake and tremble with every strike the Empire attacks with. We will make our escape to Cloud City only to come face to face with the very evil that has spread across the galaxy. Can we overcome these new hops and defeat a tyrannical empire?
This year’s Star Wars release takes a turn to the dark side as we are Maltering the Deal. Our famous Never Tell Me the Hops has been overcome by the dark malts of Carafa III and Midnight Wheat that lend rich and crisp but shadowy notes. While the bitterness from the hops has taken hold, there is still hope as you taste the tropical fruits and citrus from the Galaxy, Motueka, and El Dorado.
As you take your first sip, you may find the beer adjusting the terms of your expectations. By the time you reach the bottom of the glass, you’ll realize there was never really a choice. Just make sure this bitter, dark IPA doesn’t choke you on the way down.
“I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.”
It goes on tap at 2pm on Thursday, April 30th to kick off our Star Wars weekend! Stick around for Star Wars Trivia at 7pm and come back on Saturday, May 2nd for our limited edition glassware release.
Star Wars Trivia
Join us for a night in a galaxy not so far away as our annual Star Wars trivia night returns!
Test your knowledge of hyperspace routes, legendary Jedi, notorious bounty hunters, and the countless worlds of the saga—from the dusty streets of Tatooine to the halls of the Imperial Senate. Whether you’re a devoted member of the Rebel Alliance or quietly working for the Empire, gather your crew and prepare for multiple rounds of trivia that will challenge even the most dedicated fans.
To mark the occasion, we’re tapping Maltering the Deal, a beer inspired by one of the most memorable lines from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. This brew is our own negotiation with the dark side of brewing—rich malt character balanced with just enough bite to keep things interesting. Smooth, bold, and a little dangerous, it’s the kind of beer that might make you reconsider the terms of your agreement after the first sip.
Costumes are highly encouraged (and will be rewarded with a beer shot), lightsabers welcome, and teams will compete for prizes worthy of the Outer Rim. So assemble your squad, study up on your Star Wars lore, and come see if the Force is strong with your trivia team. Just remember… we may alter the deal—so pray we don’t alter it any further.
Music Video Bingo
There's no quizzing with this event - Sir Lanka will play themed rounds of music videos, you mark them off your bingo sheet, and shout BINGO as loud as you can!

About the Book:
A space princess on the run and a notorious outlaw soldier become unlikely allies in this imaginative, sexy space opera adventure—the first in an exciting science fiction trilogy.
In the far distant future, the universe is officially ruled by the Royal Consortium, but the High Councillors, the heads of the three High Houses, wield the true power. As the fifth of six children, Ada von Hasenberg has no authority; her only value to her High House is as a pawn in a political marriage. When her father arranges for her to wed a noble from House Rockhurst, a man she neither wants nor loves, Ada seizes control of her own destiny. The spirited princess flees before the betrothal ceremony and disappears among the stars.
Ada eluded her father’s forces for two years, but now her luck has run out. To ensure she cannot escape again, the fiery princess is thrown into a prison cell with Marcus Loch. Known as the Devil of Fornax Zero, Loch is rumored to have killed his entire chain of command during the Fornax Rebellion, and the Consortium wants his head.
When the ship returning them to Earth is attacked by a battle cruiser from rival House Rockhurst, Ada realizes that if her jilted fiancé captures her, she’ll become a political prisoner and a liability to her House. Her only hope is to strike a deal with the dangerous fugitive: a fortune if he helps her escape.
But when you make a deal with an irresistibly attractive Devil, you may lose more than you bargained for...

Book Club
For May, we reviewed some past polls and voted again on second-place books. The House Across the Lake by Riley Sager took a close lead as our next pick!
About the book:
Casey Fletcher, a recently widowed actress trying to escape a streak of bad press, has retreated to the peace and quiet of her family’s lake house in Vermont. Armed with a pair of binoculars and several bottles of bourbon, she passes the time watching Tom and Katherine Royce, the glamorous couple living in the house across the lake. They make for good viewing—a tech innovator, Tom is powerful; and a former model, Katherine is gorgeous.
One day on the lake, Casey saves Katherine from drowning, and the two strike up a budding friendship. But the more they get to know each other—and the longer Casey watches—it becomes clear that Katherine and Tom’s marriage isn’t as perfect as it appears. When Katherine suddenly vanishes, Casey immediately suspects Tom of foul play. What she doesn’t realize is that there’s more to the story than meets the eye—and that shocking secrets can lurk beneath the most placid of surfaces.

Book Club
April is World Autism Month and we're bringing that to our book club pick: Strong Female Character by Fern Brady.
About the book:
Strong Female Character is about the years in between, and the unique combination of sexism and ableism that so often prevents autistic women from getting diagnosed until adulthood. Coming from a working-class Scottish Catholic family, Fern wasn’t exactly poised to receive an open-minded acceptance of her neurodivergence. With the piercing clarity and wit that has put her at the top of the British comedy scene, she now reflects on the ways her undiagnosed autism influenced her youth, from the tree that functioned as her childhood best friend to the psychiatric facility where she ended up when neither her parents nor school knew what to do with her.

About the Book:
Stella Lane thinks math is the only thing that unites the universe. She comes up with algorithms to predict customer purchases—a job that has given her more money than she knows what to do with, and way less experience in the dating department than the average thirty-year-old.
It doesn't help that Stella has Asperger's and French kissing reminds her of a shark getting its teeth cleaned by pilot fish. Her conclusion: she needs lots of practice—with a professional. Which is why she hires escort Michael Phan. The Vietnamese and Swedish stunner can't afford to turn down Stella's offer, and agrees to help her check off all the boxes on her lesson plan—from foreplay to more-than-missionary position...
Before long, Stella not only learns to appreciate his kisses, but crave all of the other things he's making her feel. Their no-nonsense partnership starts making a strange kind of sense. And the pattern that emerges will convince Stella that love is the best kind of logic...

Join us in the Fiction taproom to celebrate the release of Francois Bereaud's new book, A Question of Family. He'll have copies of his book for sale, will be happy to sign them, and there will be a Q&A session.
About Francois:
He's the author of San Diego Stories, published in September 2024 by Cowboy Jamboree Press. His first novel, A Question of Family, is available from Stanchion Press. He serves as the fiction editor at The Twin Bill and read for Porcupine Literary. In his “real life”, he's a husband, dad, San Diego community college math professor, mentor in the Congolese refugee community, mountain biker, and mediocre hockey player.
About the book:
From François Bereaud, the acclaimed writer of San Diego Stories, comes a novel told in stories that span eras. Meet Walter, Claire, Grace, and Michael, a family in some state of dissolution. This is a story of family, of heartbreak and grace. You'll meet a wife who loses her family, a husband who loses time, their son lost in plays, and their daughter who has lost herself completely, as well as other people whose presence and absence shape who the members of this family are and will become. A Question of Family examines what it means to be alive together.

We know many of you are readers, but this evening, we're looking for those of you who write. Whether you enjoy writing poetry or prose, fiction or non-fiction, we'd love to welcome you into our taproom to workshop and share with peers.
Fiction Beer Company's Writers Group will meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 7pm. You'll have dedicated writing time, plus an opportunity to share your work with peers, get feedback, and be part of a collaborative group to help continue refining your writing skills.
Vinyl Night
If you've ever wanted to take over the music in our taproom, here's your chance! Bring in a favorite record (or more), choose a side, and we'll queue it up to play. We'll switch over to vinyl from 5pm to close, but arrive early to get a jump start in the lineup!
Vinyl Night will be on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month.
