Sacramento's favorite neighborhood tap house is throwing round two. Approved Relishers receive a seat at the Relish and inKind creator event at one of Sacramento's best neighborhood tap houses, plus $100 in inKind credit to cover your meal and drinks. Show up, connect with fellow Sacramento creators, and meet the people behind Hop Junction.
The first Hop Junction event filled up fast, so it's back for round two. Hop Junction is one of the few spots in Sacramento with a full bar and 15+ rotating NorCal craft beers on tap, the kind of neighborhood gem that keeps regulars coming back every week. This is your second shot to bring your audience inside one of Sacramento's best-kept local hangs.

💸 Out of pocket: Anything spent over $100 in inKind credits would need to be covered by you.

Round two of the Hop Junction meetup is happening on September 22nd, and you're invited to be part of it. Come hang out with other Sacramento creators, tap into $100 of inKind credit, and show your followers what a real neighborhood tap house night looks like.
Here is how it works:
Once you receive your approval email, follow the instructions to lock in your spot right away. This is a fixed event with limited availability, so do not wait.
Show up to Hop Junction on September 22nd at 6:00 PT. Bring a plus one if you want. Your $100 in inKind credit covers both of you combined, and your plus one can't redeem their own separate inKind credit. Grab a cold NorCal craft beer from the tap, order some wings, explore the full bar, and take your followers through the whole experience. Anything beyond the combined $100 is out of pocket.
Film your content and post your Reel within 5-9 business days of your visit. All content is due by October 5, 2026.

Show the full bar in action, a cocktail being made, and your full spread looking good on the table
Capture the laid-back neighborhood energy and show how easy it is to redeem your inKind credit at checkout
Don't
