52 Taphouse - hwy 6/34 Series
About this race
🛣️ The Highway Ahead: Your Summer, Your Way
The Tap to Tap: 6/34 Highway Series is a rolling circuit.
You have two ways to hit the pavement with us this summer:
Option 1: The Full Series Pass (Best Value!) Commit to the whole journey and save! By selecting the Series Bundle, you lock in your entry for all four stops (Axtell, Minden, Hastings, and the Holdrege Finale).
The Perks: You'll save $40 on registration fees, receive the official Series Shirt, and unlock the exclusive 6/34 Finisher Medal at the final stop.
Option 2: Single Race Entry Can't make them all? No problem. You can sign up for this individual race (and any of the others!) as a standalone event. You’ll still get the town-specific Enamel Pin and a post-race pour for every finish line you cross.

🏁 Stop 2: The "Taphouse Trek" @ 52 Taphouse
Part of the Tap to Tap: 6/34 Highway Series
Welcome to the Heart of the Highway. It’s July in Nebraska, the corn is tall, and the pavement is hot—but the beer at 52 Taphouse is colder. We’re heading to Minden for the Second leg of the 6/34 Series to see who has the grit to stay in the running for the Series Trophy.
🏃♂️ The Run
A fast, scenic 5K around the "Christmas City" (just with more humidity and less tinsel). Whether you’re chasing a personal best or just chasing a cold glass of beer, this is where the Series Pass holders earn their second stamp and the 52 Taphouse "Minden" Enamel Pin.
🍺 The Reward
We’ll be posting the updated Series Leaderboard live at the Taphouse. Come see where your team stands before we head into the final stretch!
