Thank you to Manitowoc and the surrounding communities for your support during the Toppling Goliath Tap Takeover.

Your enthusiasm made the event unforgettable, and it was great to see so many people enjoying great beer and company.

Thanks to Harper Group, Pizza Garden, and Clark, Dale, and Kurt from Toppling Goliath for making the event special.

We’ll keep bringing Toppling Goliath beers and other great craft brews to Hop Locker and look forward to more great memories together.

Thank you again, Manitowoc. Cheers!

There are some very rare and mysterious things in this world: UFOs, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster… and Hop Locker being open on a Sunday.

Yet here we are.

Swing in and grab an ice-cold Toppling Goliath beer or treat yourself to the best Bloody Mary to hit Manitowoc. We’re pouring from 11 AM–2 PM, and when the clock hits 2, that’s it.

A Sunday Hop Locker sighting doesn’t last long. Don’t spend years telling people you almost made it.

11–2. See you soon. Cheers! 🍻🍅

Well, the final day of the tap takeover is here!!

Somehow, there's still Toppling Goliath beer left on tap despite everyone's best efforts last night. If you've been procrastinating, today's your last shot.

And because apparently that wasn't enough, we're also serving our famous Hop Locker Bloody Marys for the first time this year.

Stop by from 11–2, grab a beer or Bloody Mary, and help us finish this weekend properly.

Cheers! 🍻

Saturday plans? If they don’t include Hop Locker, it might be time for a serious schedule adjustment. Change them, cancel them, postpone them—whatever it takes.

We’re nearing the final stretch of the Toppling Goliath Tap Takeover, and while a few kegs have already met their glorious fate, there are still plenty of absolute killers pouring.

Rare beers. World-class breweries. Great people. Cold pints.

The clock is ticking, the keg levels are dropping, and once these beers are gone, they’re gone.

Stop in, grab a pour (or several), and help us send this epic event out in style.

Hop Locker + Toppling Goliath = a Saturday well spent.

The deck is open!!

3-8pm.

Day 1 of the Toppling Goliath Tap Takeover is in the books, and what a day it was!

We tapped an incredible 22 Toppling Goliath beers featuring everything from sours, weiss beers, IPAs, stouts, and lagers. No matter your beer preference, there was something special waiting in your glass.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by and helped make the first day such a success. The energy, excitement, and support were amazing.

A special shoutout goes to the Toppling Goliath crew for helping make Day 1 truly unforgettable. Your passion for great beer showed all day long.

And we can’t forget our friends at Pizza Garden for keeping everyone fueled with fantastic wings and pizza. Thank you for helping take the event to the next level.

Now… on to Day 2.

If you missed Day 1, you still have a chance to be part of one of the biggest beer events Manitowoc has seen. The beer is flowing, the taps are loaded, and the good times are just getting started.

See you at Hop Locker. Cheers! 🍻

We are just 24 hours away from one of the most anticipated tap takeovers Manitowoc County has ever seen.

Toppling Goliath takes over Hop Locker.

This event is going to be EPIC. Not only are we tapping some incredibly rare kegs of beer, we’re also giving back to a great local cause — The Harper Group.

Come enjoy world-class beer, support local families in need, and be part of a night people will be talking about for a long time.

This is not your average tap takeover.

See you there. Cheers.

PS. Pizza Garden will be serving some delicious wings and Pizza to snack on.
