Rebus Works is hosting our annual October event: “Pop A Top” and this year we have teamed up with one of the newest North Carolina breweries, New Belgium Brewing Company. This event is unique because we have paired the various New Belgium beers with food trucks. Join us for a day celebration with DJ Sound System 13, who will be spinning old school records.
There will be plenty of tables and chairs and face painting for the kids. There will also be a do-it-yourself silkscreen station manned by Raleigh’s own, where participants can print their own koozies for a small donation made to Wiley’s Backpack Buddy program, which sends food home to households in need via the child’s backpack. This event is free and open to the public. There are a total of seven pairings and all the trucks will offer a $4 sample dish to go along with the $4 beers.

“New Belgium is so excited to begin work this fall/winter on building our second brewery in Asheville, NC that we are looking to complete by December 2015. While our brewery will be in Asheville, we are also excited about being a part of the North Carolina craft beer scene. Since we started sell beer in the state back in 2009, we’ve been able to form many great relationships with brewers in this state. There are so many great breweries that do a lot of work to support their local communities and we get excited when we can help do the same.
We are really excited to partner with Rebus Works on a unique event that showcases beloved local food trucks and Raleigh’s passion for craft beer. This should be a great event where those in attendance will be able to pair food truck menus with New Belgium beer. It’s going to be a great time.”
The BackPack Buddies Program provides children from food-insecure homes with weekend meals during the school year. Local corporations, civic groups, and individuals help collect and pack bags with kid-friendly non-perishable food. The children receive a backpack containing six balanced meals and two healthy snacks at the end of every week. The children are selected by school principals, guidance counselors, and various after school programs.
Rebus works is located at 301 Kinsey Street, Raleigh, NC, in the Boylan Heights neigborhood.
