Enjoy as The Taproom is transformed into Buddy’s Brew Pub – the ultimate Christmas Brewery inspired by the light-hearted Christmas comedy Elf. Get festive with the most Christmasy of Christmas decorations including elves of all shapes, strands of festive lights, paper snowflakes and tributes to our all time favorite elf.

You won’t have to pass through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, the sea of swirly twirly gumdrops, or the Lincoln Tunnel to enjoy the festivities, just a quick trip to Mt Horeb, WI.

And you can enjoy Christmas-themed cocktails and special holiday menu items featuring all the four main food groups — candy, candy canes, candy corn and syrup.

During the weekends book a table(s) in Buddy’s Brew Pub exclusively for your large group of 6-20.

Our communal tables provide an open and festive place for happy hour dining, watching the game or sharing a meal with family, friends or coworkers. We offer the opportunity for you to pre-order party platters and other food items in advance or you can order from our regular menu. There is a $10 per person reservation fee that is applied to your table tab. Reservations can be canceled up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund.

* Reservations are currently available 14 days in advance and are for 2 hours

Looking for a fully private event? During the week, you can rent Buddy’s Brew Pub for your private event including bar and private restrooms. We can seat 75 people comfortably for dinners and can accommodate up to 250 for the more casual events. $150 deposit is required to reserve space with full payment due two weeks in advance.

Our pricing is based on “goods purchased” which consists of food and drink purchases, therefore we have no room charge. However, if the minimum required is not met the remaining balance will be charged as a “room fee.” Tax and gratuity will be added to all final bills, with the gratuity not included in the minimum. Final bills are to be made as a single payment only (no individual checks please).
