    I am definitely going to this one. Probably going to go to the Bacon Beer Brunch at Continental and then head over to Tapestry for Cirque de Saison

    I don't EVEN want to know what they charge for RR beers at Xfinity Live. That's gotta be 8 shades of ridiculous. I know some craft brewers want to increase their footprint, and hooking up with some larger chains may just be the way to do that...but it's a trend I'm not overly anxious to embrace. Would rather drink craft beer at a local establishment than a chain. Guess it's sort of like not wanting to drink craft beer owned by BMC, for some.

    Tom, your PBW events, esp the RR one, have brought great brews to the burbs the past few years!
    Congrats on your approval to move to Hatfield. I will look forward to the outside drinking/dining option at the new place.

    Worked fine for me, try again.

    I too attended the RR event last year before I headed up to Sellersville for Sonny Landreth. A fine night of beer and music.

    I've pretty much decided I need to get a hotel for that final weekend.

    RR at Local 44
    Hill Farmstead at TND
    Maince Brewing takeover at Hawthornse's
    Bottlework/Brouwer's at Fergie's

    Plus I see it's going to be founder's night at Capone's on Wednesday (I think it's wednesday - I already deleted the email from Matt). So of course I'll need to drive up after work that day as well.

    Has anyone been to the opening tap event before? Is it unlimited samples? Is there anything special there?

    From what I can tell, there will be some breweries there that do not have any other signature events during the week. (However even some major bars don't have all their events finalized, the guys at Bierstube said they have some planned but nothing is finalized)

    I will be avoiding opening tap. Too crowded. Pretty sure I'll be a Devil's Den for the Bella Vista tap takeover. But y'all can go to opening tap, wouldn't want it to get too crowded at DD... :slight_smile:

    the bella vista takeovers at DD during PBW are great, but they're also ridiculously crowded. not as bad as monks but still pretty crazy. having said that, i'll be there too.
