University opens pop-up taproom in student union

Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind., is opening a pop-up pub in its student union, The Lafayette Journal and Courier reports.

The taproom, which will be operated by the school’s dining and catering department, will be open on Thursdays and Fridays during home football games. The pub is set to run through the last home game on Nov. 19; however, if it’s popular with fans, it may become a permanent addition. 

Although the taproom will welcome students who are over 21, it is primarily intended for alumni and hotel guests.

Food offered at the taproom will be provided by an on-campus eatery, and the beer is supplied by a local brewery. In the future, the taproom hopes to spotlight the university’s role in the production of local hops.
