OK, so Montclair’s Dragon’s Tale Brewery opened a few months back, quite a bit later than the owners had anticipated.

And the brewery just had its ribbon-cutting ceremony earlier this month.

Then it makes perfect sense that the official grand opening party would be delayed as well, right?

It’s set for January 7.

The celebration will be held in two sessions: Noon to 6 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to midnight.

There will be entertainment (Eric Olague during the early session and Wildwood Dreamers during the late session), and food vendors (3941 Tamales early and the Dip’d Truck later).

Tickets for either session are $30 (plus $2.04 service fee if purchased online) and include a keepsake goblet and 12 tasting tickets, each good for a 4-ounce pour.

Designated driver tickets ($15, plus $1.52 service fee if purchased online) are also available, and include admission and a voucher for a meal from the food vendor, plus a keepsake goblet upon exit.

Don’t hesitate — only 150 tickets will be sold for each session.

And remember, good things come to those who wait.

Dragon’s Tale Brewery is at 8920 Vernon Ave., Suite 122, Montclair.
