Alright, y'all, we at The Hop aren't messing around this week, which is jam-packed full of pure awesomeness and ice cream eating opportunities! Let's get started...


This Tuesday, September 21st, we are hosting a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of WNC. 20% of the day's sales will be donated to this wonderful organization. In addition, this is a call for "Bigs" to come out and sign up to take on a "Little". If this is something you've been itching to be a part of, stop by, show your support by having some delicious Homemade Ice Cream and step up!


Theeeeennn... This Thursday September 23rd from 5:30-7:30pm The Hop and Craggie Brewing Co are once again joining our Asheville-gilded forces to present you, the deserving public, with Antebellum Ale Beer and Ice Cream Floats! $6 gets you a beer float, helps support the YMCA of WNC and lets you take home your very own Craggie Willi (What's a Willi)! Check us out at Craggie's Public House -- 197 Hilliard Avenue, Downtown Asheville!


And theeeennn... Friday September 24th from 4-10 The Hop will be scooping our hot socks off at Eliada's Annual Corn Maze! You're dog gone right it's that time of the year! And there's a fairly strong chance that we'll be featuring our bestest batch of Pumpkin Ice Cream you've tasted this season!


Not done yet because theeeennn... Sunday September 26th from 2-5pm at The Jewish Community Center on Charlotte St is "It's Big Time", a benefit circus for Big Brothers Big Sisters of WNC (that's right, double the love :) )! The Hop is so very proud to sponsor and support this event, the brainchild of contagiously enthusiastic philanthropist, Steve Leibenhaut!

Antebellum Ale Floats!

Share

Two of Asheville’s locally owned businesses have joined together
to create ONE delicious ice cream.

The alcohol-free syrup from Craggie Brewing Co.’s Antebellum Ale
(an 1840s American Ale brewed with molasses, ginger root & spruce tips),
has been transformed into Antebellum Ice Cream; The Hop Ice Cream Cafe’s creamy, malty frozen dessert.

And… when we put Antebellum Ice Cream into a Willi* of Antebellum Ale… it’s the PERFECT PAIRING!

Come get your Antebellum Ale Floats for ONLY $6 on Thurs., Sept. 23rd from 5:30-7:30pm at Craggie Brewery on 197 Hilliard, Downtown Asheville. We’ll donate proceeds to the YMCA of WNC AND you get to keep your Willi!
