Philly Beer Week highlights
We’ve been updating the PBW website almost daily with Meet the Brewer events. Some of the biggest names in brewing are coming to town: Koch, Maytag, Arthur, Avery, Tod, Oliver, the list goes on.
Here’s a few I’m really looking forward to meeting.
Larry Bell of Bell’s Brewery of Michigan. Larry has been to Philly several times before, but I haven’t sat down for a beer with him for at least 7 or 8 years. He’ll be at Bishop’s Collar and St. Stephen’s Green on March 6th, the Kite & Key on the 7th, and Jose Pistola’s on the 8th.
Rudi Ghequire of Belgium’s Rodenbach. I’m hoping he brings along some of that barrel-aged Vin de Céréale. And what do you say we gang up and do some Philly-style lobbying for the return of Rodenbach Alexander. Look for him on March 9th at Teresa’s Next Door and at Monk’s Cafe on the 10th.
Fergal Murray of Guinness. I’ve interviewed Fergal a bunch of times and pleaded with him to come visit Philly. I want to hear his take on O’Reilly’s Stout. He’ll be at St. Stephen’s Green on March 14th, and I’m fairly certain he’ll add another one or two stops, including one in the suburbs.
