Get ready to experience the Fox Valley’s newest & best trivia game. Join us at McFleshman’s Brewing Company for a fun and modestly challenging night of questions and prizes!
Our trivia game isn’t the “high-octane, in-your-face, shouting-out-answers” show that other companies have. Nor are we a “graded-by-the-competition” game.
CoolTable Trivia is a relaxed, seated-with-your-friends, type-in-answers trivia game for folks who would like to play trivia, but also socialize with their friends, and nothing too crazy because we all have to get up in the morning.

Traditional Irish Session
2027-07-26 18:30 - 20:30, 2027-08-23 18:30 - 20:30 | McFleshman’s Brewing Co., 115 S. State Street, Appleton, WI, 54911, United States
Every Fourth Monday | McFleshman’s Brewing Company | Appleton, WI
Join us for a traditional Irish music session at McFleshman’s. Musicians and listeners alike are welcome for an evening of lively tunes, great beer, and good company.
This is an open session for players who enjoy traditional Irish music. Prior playing experience is highly encouraged, as tunes move along in the traditional session style. Some musicians play by ear, others read the notes — either approach is welcome.
No rehearsals, no formal set list — just a group of musicians sharing tunes in the moment.
Not a musician? Come grab a pint and enjoy the music. Sessions are one of the great traditions of Irish culture, where the music, the room, and the community all come together.
