Dress Like a Pirate for Victory at Sea Day in Little Italy

Victory at Sea is making an early return this year, and Ballast Point Little Italy is going full pirate to welcome it back. Themed food, games, merch made for the day, and a tap list you will not see again.

Ballast Point Brewing: Annual Victory at Sea

Buried Treasure, Back on Tap

The draft list is the real draw here. Victory at Sea anchors it, joined by special variants and a couple of pours built just for the day.

Ballast Point is also digging into the archives. A few old favorites come back on tap for the first time in years, and those are the ones to order first.

An Ice Cream Float That Exists for One Day

Victory at Sea is also getting turned into an ice cream float, pouring this day only. If you have ever wanted dessert and a dark beer in the same glass, here it is.

Themed food covers the rest of the menu, so you are not running on beer alone.

Walk the Plank, Then Putt a Round

Roaming pirates work the room and themed mini-golf takes over part of the floor for most of the afternoon. The dunk tank runs the entire day, which means you can finally make your friend walk the plank.

Come in Costume, Leave With $250

The adult costume contest carries a $250 prize. It lands near the end of the day, so there is time to commit to the bit before judging starts. Full pirate, vaguely nautical, whatever you can assemble counts.

Free In, or Go All In

General admission is free this year, with individual Victory at Sea tasters for sale once you are through the door. No package necessary.

The First Mate Bundle runs $60.54 at checkout, fees included. It comes with two drink tickets, a Victory at Sea gift bag, and an entree. Anyone under 21 needs a parent or legal guardian along, and rolling in a little before the official start is the move.
