You know that oddly specific taste of a push pop after spending a whole day out in the sun? Somehow, Dalton Union Winery & Brewery has bottled that exact energy into a bubbly drink. Enter: the craft push pop soda. It’s the kind of flavor that immediately sends your brain into a full nostalgia spiral. One sip and suddenly you’re trading AIM messages and arguing over whose iPod playlist is better.
Except now, the drinks are handcrafted. And instead of your downloaded playlist, there’s live music to sit back and relax to. That’s right, every Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, Dalton Union hosts various artists to set the tone for your patio sipping.
And if you prefer something a bit buzzier than soda, no worries. They’ve got 30 taps, pouring everything from craft beer and hard cider to cold brew coffee. And because Dalton Union makes all of their drinks on-site, that means you literally can’t get these flavors anywhere else.
Their ciders have a cult following — and for good reason. Our favs? Dreamscicle, Smoothie (a strawberry, banana, and kiwi combo), and Cherry Amaretto. They’re all dangerously drinkable and completely unlike anything else out there. Plus, because they regularly release limited ciders, there’s usually something new to try every time you stop in.
Their beer lineup is stacked with award-winning favorites, too. Just to name a few: Lupy Hazy, Big Buck Brown, Juan More, and Just Pilsner. Plus, bourbon-barrel-aged beers (need we say more?). They’re even releasing a special beer called Liberty 250 in honor of America’s upcoming 250th anniversary. Very on-brand for a place that clearly likes making drinks with personality.
And of course, let’s not forget that Dalton Union is a winery too. They’ve got 22 different varieties of their own wines to try. Dry to sweet, red to white, there’s something for everyone. They’ve even got a couple of meads if you like something that goes down extra smooth.
If all the ways to wet your whistle have you overwhelmed with choosing, don’t be. They let you try before you commit. But be forewarned — you might just find yourself staying a while to try everything you want a full glass of.
Good thing Dalton Union is the kind of place where you can linger for hours. People constantly compare it to hanging out in their living room with friends — relaxed, welcoming, and zero pressure.
They also host nonstop events, which basically plan your social calendar for you:
- Music Bingo — 1st Friday
- Trivia — 2nd Friday
- Bingo — 3rd Friday
- Karaoke — 4th Friday
- Live music every Saturday night
- Live music on Sunday afternoons
- Cruise-in —- 1st Thursday (May through September)
- Jeep Nights — 3rd Thursday (May through September)
- Line Dancing — 2nd & 4th Thursdays (May through September)
- Pints & Puzzles — 1st Sunday of every month
Add in a rotating food truck schedule year-round, and suddenly you never have to answer the group chat’s question, “Where should we go tonight?” ever again. And dog owners don’t even have to leave early — they’ve got three fenced-in acres where dogs can roam and play. It’s kind of a dream setup.
So if you’re ready to meet the place that’s about to hook you up with a.) drinks b.) atmosphere c.) fun, text the crew and make a plan to stop in at Dalton Union. Except you won’t be stopping in, because once you get a taste, you’ll be trying to move in. Don’t say we didn’t warn ya.
