Enjoy the creative talents of local face painters and balloon artists and watch your kids' faces light up with joy. We’re one of the few kid friendly breweries in the city and we really wanted to drive that home with this event” said Trevor Hayward, co-founder of Evil Genius Beer Company. “We strive to be a place where everyone is welcome and parents can enjoy a few beers with their family in comfort,” Hayward continued. Shop around with a variety of local vendors offering plushies for kids, jewelry for adults and more. Finger friendly foods will be available for order from the Evil Genius kitchen and non-alcoholic beverages such as juices and soda will be available in addition to the brewery’s lineup of housemade beers.

Splash around with Fido at Evil Genius’ second annual “Puppy Pool Party” on Saturday, July 27th from 12-5pm. This no-charge event benefits Fishtown’s favorite local dog park, Palmer Doggie Depot, and features portable dog pools and splash pads for your pups to cool off with. “Charity is a huge aspect of what we do here at Evil Genius” said Ryan Keller, Marketing Manager at Evil Genius Beer Company. “We’re huge dog lovers here and are always looking to support our community, this event is a really great way to combine both those efforts” Keller continued. This unique event is a great opportunity to explore dog-friendly vendors, discover a range of dog-themed goods provided by the brewery, socialize with our like-minded pet owners, and make awesome memories with your furry friends.
