UPDATE: The Game of Thrones event is completely sold out, but Ommegang is hosting plenty of events during Philly Beer Week and beyond, so don't miss out on the schedule below — and at each one of these events, guests have the opportunity to win 2 tickets to the Game of Thrones event!

Monday, 6/5: London Grill, 8 PM - 10 PM
Tuesday, 6/6: Revolution House, 6 PM - 9 PM
Wednesday, 6/7: The Industry featuring DJ FunkSoulRocknRoll, 9 PM - 11 PM
Wednesdy, 6/7: Misconduct Tavern on Locust, 5 PM - 8 PM

If you’ve ever wanted to sip a beer while sitting on the Iron Throne, you’ll want to head to Eastern State Penitentiary on Wednesday, June 21 from 8 PM - 11 PM for the release of Bend the Golden Knee, the latest Ommegang brew inspired by HBO’s hit series Game of Thrones.

Alongside Bend the Golden Knee, a Belgian-style brewed with honey which is now available on draft and in 750 ml bottles across the United States, guests will be able to taste the rest of Ommegang’s Game of Thrones collection, sample meats and cheeses provided by Di Bruno Bros., and enjoy entertainment like fire spinners, live music, and a DJ. Once you’ve gotten your fill, head over to the Iron Throne itself for a photo op.

Tickets are $65 per person and will definitely sell out fast — this is the second year that Ommegang and Eastern State have co-hosted this event, and last year, tickets sold out in a day. Get your tickets here, which will go on sale right at noon on Friday, June 2. Don’t miss out on your chance to be king or queen of Westeros for a night and taste Ommegang’s newest beer!
