Update: NO ramen pop up this evening or the rest of May at Barrel + Beam.

We apologize for the late notice if you planned to join us this evening, but we’ve decided to take a break from Thursday Ramen Nights for this month. With summer approaching we’ve got some exciting new plans and changes and Chef Alex needs some time to get ready for the season ahead. Stay tuned for updates!

B+B still serves Smelted Pizza which pairs great with a brew! Thanks so much for your support, patience and understanding! 🍻
