Hosted by Jessica from Its All Fun and Games of Hudson @ItsAllFunAndGames25

Think you know your music? Come find out.

Join us at Upper Depot for It’s All Fun & Games Music Bingo — a night of great songs, cold beer, laughs, and a little friendly competition.

Instead of numbers, you’ll listen for songs on your bingo card. Hear one you recognize? Mark it off and work your way toward BINGO.

How it works:

• Multiple music categories and rounds throughout the night

• Every player gets one free Music Bingo card

• Winners take home prizes from Upper Depot

• Optional $5 Jackpot Cards are available for an added chance to win

• Grab a beer, bring some friends, and play along

You don’t need to be a music expert. Sing along, ask your table for help, and have fun with it.

No cover. No reservations required. Just show up and play.

Music Bingo: 6:00–8:00 PM

Community & Collaboration

Upper Depot also hosts and supports community-minded events, local collaborations, fundraisers, partner gatherings, and special projects that bring people together around more than beer.

These events show the brewery as part of the local fabric — a place where neighbors, local businesses, guests, and community causes can connect in a relaxed Hudson setting.

Best for: community partners, local supporters, regulars, and visitors who like places with a real local story.

Timing: Check the rolling events calendar below for current community and collaboration events.

Live Music

Live music at Upper Depot brings local and regional performers into one of Hudson’s most distinctive taproom settings.

It is an easy reason to make a night of it — fresh beer, good food, and music in a relaxed, welcoming space.

Best for: weekend visitors, date nights, groups of friends, and locals looking for a low-pressure night out.

Trivia Night

Trivia Night is one of the easiest ways to turn a regular night at Upper Depot into a group outing.

Come with a team, bring a few friends, or join in as a first-time visitor. The atmosphere is friendly, casual, and built around good beer, good guesses, and a little bragging rights.

Best for: regulars, friend groups, coworkers, and first-time guests who want something simple to join.

Timing: Check the rolling events calendar below for current trivia dates, start times, host details, and any prize information.

Beer Releases

Upper Depot regularly rotates fresh beers through the taproom, with special releases when something new is ready to pour or take home.

Beer releases give guests a reason to come back and try what Aaron and the team are excited about now. Some releases are simple taproom updates. Others may become bigger event days, can drops, or seasonal features.

Best for: craft beer fans, regulars, Mug Club members, and visitors who want something brewed right here in Hudson.

Timing: Check the rolling events calendar below for release dates and special beer events.

Seasonal & Special Events

From fall beer-season gatherings to anniversary parties, holiday weekends, one-off celebrations, and special taproom events, Upper Depot uses the calendar as a reason to bring people together.

These events make the taproom feel current, local, and worth checking before a weekend visit to Hudson.

Best for: weekend visitors, groups of friends, locals, and anyone looking for something specific to plan around.

Timing: Check the rolling events calendar below for current seasonal and special event dates.

Workshops & Create-and-Sip Events

Creative workshops and partner-led events give guests another way to use the taproom: make something, meet people, and enjoy a beer while they are here.

These events are easy to plan around and give locals and visitors a reason to choose a specific date at Upper Depot.

Best for: small groups, date nights, friends, visitors, and anyone looking for something hands-on to do in Hudson.

Timing: Check the rolling events calendar below for current workshop dates, partner names, RSVP details, and ticket links.
