If you haven’t been in yet, we’re Hops & Vine, your downtown Lewiston spot for wine, craft beer, cocktails, and good people. And nights like this are exactly why we do it!
What a night! We had the absolute best time hosting Taylor University Trojan fans for a late night celebration during the NAIA World Series!
This one was extra special! We put it all together in less than 30 hours, and I was doing it from California celebrating my son’s 30th birthday and soaking up time with my grandbaby.
Madelaine designed a custom craft cocktail list inspired by the Trojans and when I needed backup, my ex-husband Mike and my brother Micah didn’t hesitate for a second. They don’t work here regularly, they just love me, and they show up. I am so blessed to have that kind of family. ❤️
A huge thank you to the incredible Beyond Bryden for bringing the energy and making it unforgettable. And to my photography friend Chris Crabtree for coming to the NAIA World Series to cheer on his son and bringing in an amazing crew of parents and fans all cheering on their own Trojans. It meant the world to have you all with us.
To every Taylor University parent and fan who packed in, thank you. This is exactly what Hops & Vine is here for.
And to my incredible team; Madeleine, Baeli, Gwen, Alexis, and Danica you all crushed it!
