A tasting room will soon reopen as a renovated venue with expanded offerings in the Lehigh Valley.<\/p>\n

The Rail Yard will hold a limited sneak peek for drink service noon to 5 p.m. Saturday at 518 Bank St. in Emmaus, co-owner and CEO Rob Johnson said, ahead of its grand reopening on Sept. 13. Those dates will coincide with the Emmaus 250 celebration<\/a> and Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> regular season opening day, respectively.<\/p>\n

The business closed in late March for renovations that included custom-built bars; a new game area for pool, pinball machines and arcade machines; and a new dining area using the space where a Weyerbacher Brewing Co.<\/a> taproom closed earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The tasting room was for Triple Sun Spirits Co., which will also rebrand to The Rail Yard.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was primarily a designation of the concept that we offer more than just Triple Sun product,\u201d said Johnson, who co-owns the business with Dave McAdoo and Kris Kwant.<\/p>\n

Including with outside partnerships, the offerings will include spirits, ciders, beer, wine, ready-to-drink cocktails, bottles for purchase, a rotating menu of southern-inspired comfort food and events like trivia and live music, Johnson and McAdoo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a venue for us to highlight and promote other local products as well as our own,\u201d Johnson said. \u201cIt\u2019s a community venue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s still occupying the same space and footprint that it always has been, but now expanding the portfolio to include a variety of other products \u2014 both products that we co-pack and additional products that we have in our own portfolio,\u201d Kwant said. \u201cIt gives a good opportunity for us to kind of package that all together in the rebrand. The Rail Yard makes sense too because it\u2019s right along the tracks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnson said they\u2019re planning to open with the hours of 4-9 p.m. Thursday, 4-10 p.m. Friday and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday, expanding those hours to Wednesday through Sunday by the spring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A tasting room will soon reopen as a renovated venue with expanded offerings in the Lehigh Valley.
