Spend a gorgeous summer evening at the American Swedish Historical Museum in FDR Park enjoying regional and international beers alongside a Swedish-inspired dinner buffet!

SmörgåsBeer party-goers can play trivia and lawn games as well as a traditional Swedish “tipsrunda” or quiz walk through the museum. There is no better way to pass a summer evening than tasting new beers, ciders and more, challenging friends to unique games, and dancing the night away to great music. Amazing prizes will also be raffled throughout the evening to support the museum.
