Craft Beer Pinball League
Craft Beer Pinball League is a social and competitive pinball community based in Madison, Wisconsin, that brings together players of all skill levels for fun, beer, and pinball competition. League nights are held throughout the month — typically on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays — at venues like The Kickback Bar, with a rotating host brewery and a wide selection of pinball machines to play. Participants enjoy group match play followed by playoffs, can win brewery swag and prizes, and even take part in IFPA-tracked nights where scores are submitted for official rankings. The atmosphere emphasizes community and casual competition, with the first sponsored beer often included with registration.

Friday Night Strikes
Friday Night Strikes is a weekly pinball tournament night held at The Kickback Bar in Middleton, WI, most Fridays starting around 7 PM. Instead of season standings, this event typically uses a “three strikes” format: every player starts with zero strikes, gains a strike each time they lose a match, and is eliminated after accumulating three. The last player standing at the end of the night wins bragging rights and often enjoys the relaxed vibe of casual competition with friends and fellow pinball fans. There’s no advance registration or entry fee required — you just show up and play.
