But if you’ve got a thing for chicken wings, there’s one booth in particular you won’t want to miss! Come with us as we check out all the offerings at Brew-Wing Lab!
Brew-Wing Lab
Located at The Odyssey, Brew-Wing Lab offers a variety of zany concoctions and one VERY popular crowd-pleaser: the chicken wing!
Brew-Wing Lab
Here, you’ll find several varieties of chicken wings, including Traditional Buffalo Wings with celery and ranch, Garlic-Parmesan Wings, and Peanut Butter and Jelly Sticky Wings. This year, the booth also offers a BRAND-NEW take on this classic dish: the Unnecessarily Spicy Yet Extremely Tasty Carolina Reaper Pepper Curry Wings! These are served with a refreshing, creamy cucumber raita.
Booth Menu
On the beverage menu, you’ll find a handful of returning favorites, along with SIX new drink options. These include 3 Daughters Brewing Pickle Hard Seltzer, a non-alcoholic Pickle Milkshake, and the Coppertail Brewing Smoked Lager, among others.
Review
Brew-Wing Lab sure drew a crowd today, but our MickeyBlog team was happy to wait in line for some tasty Muppet-inspired snacks.

Our team started with the non-alcoholic Pickle Milk Shake ($6.00), which proved to be just as…..weird….as it was last year.
Pickle Milk Shake
Oddly, the best way to describe this is a vanilla milkshake mixed with salt and vinegar chips. It’s not bad, exactly — just different.

Next, we tried the Fried Pickle Spears ($5.75), which are served warm with Dill Ranch.
Fried Pickle Spears
These are very tasty, with pleasantly crispy breading. They’re heavy on the dill flavor — and a little light on the salt, in our opinion — but they’re definitely worth a try during your Food & Wine Festival visit.
The Fried Pickle Spears are only served with a drizzle of Ranch dressing — but if you require MORE sauce, you can always grab extra at the counter.
The last food item on our list was the Unnecessarily Spicy Yet Extremely Tasty Carolina Reaper Pepper Curry Wings ($7.75).
Unnecessarily Spicy Yet Extremely Tasty Carolina Reaper Pepper Curry Wings
Unfortunately, these really ARE unnecessarily spicy. Also, unfortunately, they’re not exactly “extremely tasty,” unless you count FIRE as an actual flavor!
These are SO hot, and we tasted nothing but the Carolina Reaper Sauce. Sadly, we can’t really recommend these unless you’re ready for some SERIOUS spice.

Also available here are a bunch of drinks! You can get the beverage flight here with the Coppertail Brewing Smoked Lager, Keel Farms Elderberry Serrano Hard Cider, and 3 Daughters Brewing Pickle Hard Seltzer for $10.25.
This Smoked Lager is exactly what it sounds like, a light beer with a smoky flavor. The Elderberry Serrano Hard Cider is unique and very interesting — it’s fruity with a decent amount of heat. And, the Pickle Hard Seltzer was very weird. It’s light and refreshing, but is kind of like carbonated pickle juice and we couldn’t drink more than a few sips.
Our favorite was definitely the Smoked Lager!
We also tried The Bruery Desert Flora with Hibiscus & Prickly Pear in a 6 oz. pour for $5.75.
