Trellis Brewing Launches In-House New Kitchen Program
2026-04-10 17:00 - 21:30
Smoketown’s Trellis Brewing is expanding its taproom experience with the launch of Trellis Foods, a new in-house kitchen centered on one idea: food built for beer. Opening Friday, April 10 at its Logan Street taproom (827 Logan Street), the addition brings a full food program into the brewery for the first time. Chef James Andrews, previously of Red Hog Restaurant & Butcher Shop, leads the kitchen. Trellis Foods will operate Monday through Friday from 5pm to 9:30pm, and on weekends from 11am to 9:30pm.

Starters include house-made beer cheese with pretzel chips, chili cheese fries, and rotating frito misto. Mains range from steak frites with skirt steak and au poivre to the Trellis Burger on a Martin’s potato bun, alongside a lineup of dogs like the Seattle Dog with cream cheese and red hot onions, and the KY Slaw Dog with scratch chili and Kentucky slaw. The menu also emphasizes locally sourced ingredients, with products from producers such as Fischer Farms (St. Anthony, IN) and Rootbound Farms (Crestwood, KY). Hot dogs are sourced from Sahlen’s in Buffalo, NY, a nod to owner Kyle Jahn’s family connection in to the area.

For weekend brunch, the Monte Cristo Dog layers French toast batter, gruyère, and raspberry jam, while the Breakfast Dog adds egg, cheese, and sausage.

“Our goal wasn’t to open a restaurant inside a brewery,” said Kyle Jahn, owner of Trellis Brewing. “It was to build food that actually belongs here. Everything on the menu is designed to work with the beer, not distract from it. We’re excited to have our own kitchen serve you food that pairs nicely with our beer.”

Trellis Foods will operate Monday through Friday from 5pm to 9:30pm, and on weekends from 11am to 9:30pm, including brunch service on Saturday and Sunday.

The new kitchen marks a natural next step for Trellis Brewing as it continues to build out a taproom designed for staying awhile.

Chaos, Cupcakes & Caffeine: The Frosting Games
2026-04-17 00:00
Decorate cupcakes. Drink caffeine. Survive the roast. Includes 4 themed cupcakes + unlimited roasting. It’s not a class—it’s an experience.
WHO: You. Yes—you.
The tribute who hasn’t had a night out in three months and is hoping frosting will fix everything.
Ages 18+ only. The arena cannot support multiple tantrum demographics.
WHAT: A cupcake decorating “class.” By which we mean: an arena.
You’ll be sorted into sectors, given wildly uneven supplies, and told to make it work.
There may be guidance. There will be judgment.
Only one cupcake reigns supreme.
WHEN: Friday, April 17th 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM
Ninety minutes of strategic chaos, shifting alliances, and questionable piping choices. Any longer and the caffeine becomes a liability.
WHERE: The Train Depot at 2230 Buechel Ave
We aren’t exactly sure why The Train Depot agreed to this. Bold move on their part.
(A train depot is a place where historically, people have fled their problems. Fitting.)
WHY: Because therapy is expensive.
Because competition gives meaning.
Because you crave validation from strangers and buttercream.
Because your inner child wants sprinkles—and your inner adult wants to win.
HOW: Buy a ticket. Enter the arena. Trust no one.
You’ll be sorted into sectors, issued supplies, and forced to decorate under pressure. Some tributes may receive sponsor gifts. Others will receive… character development.
CHAOS, CUPCAKES & CAFFEINE: THE FROSTING GAMES
Cupcake decorating for the emotionally unstable and over-caffeinated. It’s not a class. It’s a survival experience.
You’ll laugh, you might cry, and you’ll leave bonded to your fellow tributes in a very “we survived this” way.
