City Tap House to Become “Fort Point Nantucket” Over Memorial Day Weekend

This Memorial Day weekend, there’s no need to hightail it out of the City to Nantucket for Figawi; City Tap House is transforming into the “Fort Point Nantucket” with Cisco Brewers. For three straight days and nights, Cisco Brewers will turn City Tap’s coveted patio into a replica of its microbrewery on Nantucket complete with a 60-foot flag celebrating everything Americana, a branded Cisco tent, lawn games, seafood specials and summer sips.

With live music each day, nationalistic revelers can test their hand at cornhole in a beer-fueled competition. (For those looking to not enter a bloodbath, there will be washers, giant Jenga and more.) From the kitchen, large gulf shrimp cocktail ($4 for 9; add a shrimp for $2 each), New England clam chowder ($10/$13) and the lobster rolls will be blissfully stuffed in a buttery roll ($23). On the liquid side, there will be icy buckets of Cisco’s Whales Tale Pale Ale and Gripah grapefruit IPA (5 cans/$25); pints of Cisco’s CranTUCKET Brut Rosé IPA, Shark Tracker and Grey Lady ($7 each); and a foursome of cocktails including the Blue Haired Lady with Grey Lady and 888 Blueberry ($10); the Figawi Wowie with 888 Cranberry, mint, soda water and lemonade ($10); a Blueberry Lemonade with 888 Blueberry, soda water and lemonade ($10); and a Madaket Mule with 888 Cranberry, ginger beer and lime ($10).

Each day will also feature its own line-up of events:

SATURDAY, MAY 25:
The Royal Furs will be entertaining with a live set from 1pm to 5pm while summer’s socialites celebrate the release of Cisco’s CranTUCKET Brut Rosé IPA and don their best “Nantucket red” for a chance to win a prize and show it off in a Nantucket-inspired photo station. DJ Sprino will shut it down with the latest hit songs from 9pm to close.

SUNDAY, MAY 26:
City Tap’s Sunday Acoustic Sunday series returns for the season! Whip out your leis and hula skirts for an island-style Sunday funday over the holiday weekend featuring live music by singer-songwriter Victoria Kelly (with sounds reminiscent of Sara Bareilles) from 6pm-9pm and a Pineapple Express cocktail with 888 Vanilla, ginger ale, pineapple and lime ($10).

MONDAY, MAY 27:
Holiday revelers will balance their time between sipping, supping and social sporting at this MDW “Shuckfest” on City Tap’s fire-pit lined patio complete with $1 oysters and live music by the Bonus Cat Band from 1pm to 4pm.
