    So which venue in MA do you think will have the better Zwanze Day experience in 2012? I enjoyed Zwanze Day 2011 at Lord Hobo last year, but I'm thinking about heading to the Armsby Abbey in Worcester this year instead. Thoughts?

    I've never been to an event at Lord Hobo so I can't really say, but between the Hill Farmstead Dinner and StoutFest, Alec has killed it at Armsby Abbey. I see no reason why it would would any less than amazing.

    What exactly is this? A special Cantillon beer tapped at 3, plus a menu and t-shirts? How packed does Hobo get for this?

    Last year my wife and I showed up one hour before, and we almost didn't get a table. From what I recall, though, there was beer left for people who showed up one hour after.
