Memphis Taproom (2331 E. Cumberland St., Port Richmond) is offering a helluva incentive for Phillies fans. If you’re in the bar when the team clinches the World Series, the owners, Brendan & Leigh, will break out sixpacks of exceedingly hard-to-find Westvleteren 6  & 8.

F— the fans. What the bar oughta do is call up the Phillies and promise Jimmy Rollins a Westy if he gets a freaking hit.

Meanwhile, you may have heard that Brendan & Leigh are opening a second joint in West Philly, at the site of the former Kelliann’s (44th and Spruce streets). The bar, Local 44, expects to open by the end of November. They’ve already got their inaugural tap list lined up:
