Some books you read. This one grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go.

Join us on Tuesday, October 6th as 3rd Turn Brewing's The Church partners with Book Social 502 and Crop Organic Spirits for a night that's part book release, part crime scene, part cocktail hour. From 7–9PM, we're celebrating the release of The Chain House by J.H. Markert, the twisted new thriller from the author of Sleep Tight.

Here's the premise, if you dare: a notorious cult leader sits on death row... claiming to secretly be a famous anonymous novelist. Dark, layered, and exactly the kind of story that makes you side-eye the person next to you at the bar.

This isn't your typical book release party. This is J.H. Markert himself, in the flesh, ready to sign your copy while you sip something organic, something craft, and something a little unexpected, courtesy of Crop Organic Spirits.

Grab a copy at the door, settle into a pew, and let the chains rattle a little. Whether you're a die-hard thriller reader or you just want an excuse for a genuinely different Tuesday night, there's a seat (and a signature) waiting for you.

Book Release: The Chain House by J.H. Markert Live Author Signing Featuring Crop Organic Spirits Hosted with Book Social 502  3rd Turn Brewing "The Church" – J-Town Tuesday, October 6th | 7–9PM

Buy the book. Get it signed. Try not to look over your shoulder on the walk to your car.

Come As You Are. Stay for the story. Leave a little unsettled.

Not every Thursday needs a plan. Sometimes all you need is good music, good people, and a place that feels like home.

Join us for Golden Hour Sessions – Session 5 on Thursday, October 8th, as we welcome Andy Burch to 3rd Turn Brewing's The Church for another evening of intimate live music, laid-back conversation, and everything we love about the shift into fall in J-Town. From 7:30–9PM+, we're inviting you to slow down, unplug for a while, and simply enjoy the moment... if the room lets you.

Golden Hour Sessions was created for the locals, for neighbors looking to unwind after work, friends catching up over a pint, and anyone who believes live music is best enjoyed in an intimate setting instead of a crowded concert venue.

This month's featured artist, Andy Burch, brings a set built for the season: moody, atmospheric, and just a little bit haunted, the kind of music that feels right at home echoing through a 100+ year old church as the light fades early and the air turns crisp. Think golden hour with a shadow creeping in at the edges.

Whether you're discovering a new favorite musician or just looking for an excuse to spend an autumn evening with good (and slightly spooky) company, you'll find a seat waiting for you.

Enjoy our weekday drink specials, explore one of our seasonal cocktails, or settle in with your favorite local craft beer while the music fills The Church, pews and all.

There's something special about watching the day wind down with a guitar in the corner, a cold drink in your hand, and a set list that makes the hair on your arms stand up just a little.

Live Music by Andy Burch FREE ENTRY Weekday Drink Specials Moody. Atmospheric. A Little Bit Haunted.  3rd Turn Brewing "The Church" – J-Town Thursday, October 8th | 7:30–9PM+

Invite your neighbors. Tell them to bring a friend. Because the best communities are built one conversation, one song, and one shared pint, best enjoyed under flickering candlelight.

Come As You Are. Stay for the music. Leave a little haunted.

We are preparing our best chili for this year's hop. Be ready to get the best JTown has to offer. More than that prepare to vote 3rd Turn Brewing as best chili of 2026.

Some rivalries are settled in the ring. This one's settled in a bowl.

Join us on Saturday, October 17th as 3rd Turn Brewing's The Church returns as a 2nd Year Contestant in The Second Annual J-Town Chili Hop! From 3–6PM, hop the trolley through the Gaslight District and taste your way through 10+ local J-Town businesses, all competing for one very hard-earned title: Best Chili in J-Town.

This year, we're bringing back Chef Lee's "Mean Three" Chili, made in-house and ready to throw its hat in the ring for the win. Sample it alongside the rest of the lineup, cast your vote, and let your taste buds decide who takes home the crown. If you loved scratch-made Bread, Mama Tess will be providing a new recipe: Herbed Foccacia Loaves you can sample and take home - while supplies last. 

Hop off the trolley at The Church and stick around, because we're not just serving chili. Grab a craft beer, one of our seasonal cocktails or slushies, and don't skip the lovely Garden Seating and Outdoor Decks. It's the kind of stop that makes the whole hop worth it.

Best part? All it takes to taste everything along the route is $10, or a donation of canned goods. Comfort food for a good cause, and a good afternoon for the whole family.

Every good harvest festival needs beer, music, and at least one goat wearing flowers. This one's got all three.

Join us on Friday, October 23rd as 3rd Turn Brewing's The Church hosts The Last Stein: A Kirchweih Inspired Fest, our farewell to Oktoberfest season done the old-world way. From 5–9PM, inside and out, we're throwing a celebration rooted in centuries-old Bavarian tradition. Kirchweih began as a festival marking a church's consecration, a community coming together over beer, food, music, and the harvest. Feels fitting, given where we're standing.

This isn't your average last call. Come meet The Stein Maker herself, working the wheel live and giving you a front-row seat to how the vessel in your hand actually gets made. Then head to the Sanctuary for a Goat Toast and Flower Crowning with our friends from Blackacre Nature Preserve & Historic Homestead. Yes, there's a real goat, yes, there are flower crowns, and yes, you should absolutely stay for it! 

THE LEFTOVERS take the stage for live music while you work through a lineup of European, local and craft beers, while Brinehaus Meat Co. brings the traditional German food straight to you to make it feel like the real thing. Stick around for the Golden Bell Raffle before the night winds down.

No cover, no excuses. Grab a stein (or let us pour you one from the Mug Club Wall - iykyk) and toast the season out right.

Prost to the harvest, the season, and one very good goat.

 There is Art in Repair - and it's more close-to-home than you think.

Join us on Wednesday, October 28th at your neighborhood Church Brewery for The Art of Kintsugi: A Guided Workshop, an evening of reflection, repair, and gold. Hosted alongside Laurel Hill and Company, we're bringing the centuries-old Japanese practice of Kintsugi into the beer hall for one night only.

Here's how it works: you break it apart (you can bring a piece to break or be provided with one day-of). Then, piece by piece, you put it back together, filling every crack with gold instead of hiding it. It's not about erasing the damage. It's about honoring it, turning what shattered into what shines. Miss Skye will guide you through the process and 3rd Turn will provide the Beer to "help the healing process" 

This is a slow, hands-on evening. No rushing - this is a Beautiful Japanese Tradition rooted in peace and healing. Just you, the tools provided, a vessel, some gold, new faces, and a space built for quiet transformation. Sometimes the most beautiful things are the ones that have already been broken once...

Guided Kintsugi Workshop "An Evening of Reflection, Repair + Gold" $30 per person, tickets required Craft Beer & Specialty Drinks Available  3rd Turn Brewing "The Church" – J-Town Wednesday, October 28th | 6PM

Come as you are, cracks and all. Leave a little more gold than when you walked in.

Every mask tells a story. Start your Spooky Season Experience in 2026 with a Rock Show! 

Join us on Thursday, October 29th as 3rd Turn Brewing's The Church transforms into ground zero for our Sinners & Saints Halloween Party, a Halloween rock show and costume party all in one. From 7PM til' close, come dressed as whoever, whatever, or whichever side of the line you fall on this year.

Arbitrary Symmetry returns to the stage, and this time they're not playing golden hour. They're playing their spooky set, the one saved just for this night, built to echo through 100+ year old bricks and rattle some old Spirits in the process.

Grab a bite from Cousins Seafood Truck (a big crowd favorite! - they will be posted outside 3T earlier than the party's start time, so if you want your Seafood fix before the Festivities start inside, they will officially start at 4pm). Browse our Surprise Vendors (yes, surprise, we're not telling you who! It could be anything!), and don't skip the Silent Auction while you're here for some cool prizes. Wash it all down with our Halloween drink specials and special brews, crafted just for the occasion.

Come as a sinner. Come as a saint. Just come, and wear a mask if you've got one!
