Hootenanny 2026
It's the 10th Anniversary of Smoketown Brewing and you're invited to come celebrate with us!
This block party is the biggest one yet, and will expand into the street and down to our parking lot during the day, ending Upstairs in the evening with an amazing show by The Legwarmers!
April 18th from noon - 10p
Games of Skill, with prizes!

The Stein Hoist is back this year, with divisions for Men and for Women. Start working those beer-holder muscles! Registration includes a keep-sake stein, filled with Country Roads beer. Must be 21 or older to enter.
The Legwarmers - Upstairs (6p start)
Remember the Eighties? The Legwarmers don't just remember the Eighties, they re-live them. From the Simmons electronic drum kit to the checkered vans and skinny ties - the Legwarmers are the Eighties you remember. Fans have reported leaving shows trapped in character, blaming the Legwarmers for their ill-fated attempts at dancing on the ceiling and their inability to drive 55. The Legwarmers do the songs the way they were meant to be done - with a wink, a smile, and a sound that gels like Aqua Net. With more moves than a Rubik's Cube, the Legwarmers take the stage like it's prom night in a John Hughes movie, a very special episode of "Square Pegs" and the Monsters of Rock Tour - all at once. So remember: this ain't no half-assed cover band, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around - it's the Legwarmers, the Ultimate 80s Tribute Band. Click for tickets!
Live Music - Freddie Long Band (3-5p)

Part introspective pop/rock singer/songwriter, part bluesy soul man classic rocker--ALL heart. If you haven't seen Freddie Long around the Frederick music scene, you must be new to town. For this show, he's bringing the whole band for maximum fun and amazing tunes.
Live Music - Summer & Eric (12-2p)

​Summer & Eric are an acoustic duo known for tight harmonies, driving, percussive rhythm, and original songs built for intimate rooms. Their sound is warm, honest, and rooted in connection—music that translates from listening rooms to packed stages.
New Beer Release - Malt Liquor

First developed during the Depression, this malt liquor gives the smoothest kick possible with an ABV of 7.9%. Our brewer, Brandon, has been cooking up this very special batch just for Hootenanny. It's a limited run only available that day, so get here early for a taste.
