Beyond the Darkness is back for 2024!

Together, let's celebrate and explore dark beers and show some love to your local craft breweries and taprooms!

Inspired by the celebration of the Brewers Association's Stout Month across the US, ZZeppelin & the Northbank Brewers Alliance are proud to present a weeklong celebration of dark beers! From toasty to roasty, from decadent to easy-drinking, from rich to subtle... dark beers take on a wide range of flavors worthy of being explored in-depth.
