The 24th Annual Burns' Night at the Schlafly Tap Room
Burns' night is a Scottish tradition celebrating the life, spirit and works of poet Robert Burns (1759-1796). Schlafly's 24th annual celebration included a loaded menu of haggis, shephard's pie, scotch eggs and sticky toffee pudding. Followed by a parade of pipers, a poem by the late and great Tom Schlafly, a live performance by Duddy Breeks and, of course, kilts and delicious Scotch Ale.
