AfterHours: Science of Beer

Leave the kids at home! This event is for adults 21+!

Join in for everyone’s favorite beer-themed event, where the worlds of beer and science collide! Explore the museum’s exhibits after hours while your favorite local breweries serve up samples and the science behind them all evening long.

Delve into all things beer with activities, demonstrations, crafts, and more! Hop over to play lawn games, relax in the biergarten, then take a sunset train ride on the Ellerbe Creek Railway.

Your ticket includes:

A commemorative Science of Beer cup
Beverage & food samples from local vendors
Access to the Main Building, Hideaway Woods, and Magic Wings Butterfly House
“New Age Soul” & “50Kitchen” food trucks will also be on site for purchase. Not a big beer drinker, but love science? Don’t fret! They’ll have a variety of options outside of beer, including wine and a specialty mocktail available for purchase at our cash bar.

All money raised from this event will benefit conservation and education initiatives that help inspire lifelong learning.
