Once, a few years ago, I played on trick on Facebook. I wanted to see what would happen if I changed my birthday. I love Facebook birthday’s, so why not have one more than once a year. In essence, I created my own personal birthday holiday.

We should all be allowed to create our own holidays.

Abbey Spencer, head brewer at Third Wheel Brewing in St. Peter’s, must have the same idea because that is exactly what they are doing.

So we made up a holiday. Hope you can join us. pic.twitter.com/rYVRyosvSx

Thank goodness for March 3, or 3/3! Now Third Wheel has the perfect day to celebrate all things “3”

The day will feature 3 beer releases, 3 bands, and $3 select drafts. All the fun begins at 11 a.m. and will run till 11 p.m.

Pouring for $3.00 will be:

Fall Into This | Fruit Beer | 5.2% ABV | 18 IBU

Third Wheel’s fall seasonal, a cranberry farmhouse, is a bready, slightly funky, dry, spicy fruit beer. Cranberries give the finish a slight tartness and its the pinkest beer you’ll ever drink.

Trixie’s | Pale Ale – American | 5.8% ABV | 32 IBU

Named after the brewery’s three-wheeled mascot/beer wagon, Trixie. This beer will delight your palate with hints of citrus and pine and is well balanced with sweet, bready malt.

Saint Peters Porter |Porter – American | 6.8% ABV | 32 IBU

A robust American porter with rich chocolate notes and roasty full body proudly brewed in St. Peters, MO.

And plan to be there at 3:00 for a special, complimentary toast to the hour.

“As for beers, we’ll be doing some fun one-offs/ special releases to celebrate the day,” said Spencer.

Peanut Butter Porter | 7.4% | 32 IBUs

Robust Porter with crazy amounts of chocolate malt, hints of sweet coffee and dark caramel notes with a subtle sweet peanut butter layer.

Mango Hanging Pants | 6.2% | 38 IBUs

This is a New England Style Pale Ale brewed with Falconers Flight hops.

“We made a super small batch of this for Charleville’s Luau event, and our bar staff was so upset that I didn’t make enough for the brewery, so I made a little more for this event. Super juicy and tropical fruit balanced with just enough malt backbone to balance out those crazy fruit flavors.
