By now you may have learned that the new brew honoring the 1980s Wichita Wings will be called "Chico Beer-ja." It made us laugh the first time co-director Kenny Linn suggested it. It is, of course, named after Chico Borja, one of the most popular players in Wings history, who gave us his blessing.
And hopefully, by now you know that beer will make its debut 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 15 at Aero Plains Brewing, 117 N. Handley Street in Delano. The Chico Beer-ja Premiere Party will last until 9 p.m. or so.
More details ...
* We will be premiering a two-minute trailer for our documentary about the 1980s Wings, which will include all 16 people we've interviewed so far.
* There will a food truck there. It's called Funky Monkey Munchies, and they're known best for their Asian Fusion Tacos.
* Chico Beer-ja will sell for $6 a pint, $1 of which will go toward the making of our documentary.
* The beer is orange with a citrus taste. (Think Leinenkugels or Blue Moon.) Aero Plains has many other terrific beers on tap if you're not into that. (Trust us - we've been there a few times these last couple of months.)
* If you're not a beer drinker, Aero Plains offers wine and mixed drinks as well.
* The entire filmmaking team will be there, as well as some folks who are featured in the movie.
* Nashville singer/songwriter Taylor Kropp will be performing.
