Independence Beer Garden Returns for the 2016 Season

Michael Schulson's twinkly summer beer garden overlooking the Liberty Bell and Independence National Historic Park is back at it again for summer 2016.

This Friday and Saturday only (April 15-16) Independence Beer Garden will open its doors at 11:30 a.m. for its soft season opener. A little taste for what's to come on Thursday, April 21, when it officially opens. Kitchen hours will go until 10 p.m Sunday through Tuesday, 11 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, and midnight on weekends. Bar hours are simply two hours later than kitchen-close.

And like its previous years, expect a collab-brew by Yards, a menu of group-friendly eats, and yard games. It's time to stretch out your cornhole arm.
