    I'll go ahead and make a plug for one of our locals here in Portland. This was posted by Great Notion Brewing yesterday:

    Philly Beer Week starts today and runs until June 9 and we have a few pop-up events happening around the City of Brotherly Love!

    May 31 at Glory Beer Bar and Kitchen

    June 2 at Pub on Passyunk East (POPE)

    June 5 at Issac Newton's


    Have no idea what they plan to pour, but assume it will likely include some of their more popular sours, hazies and pastry stouts (Blueberry Muffin, Ripe and Double Stack, for example).

    Doesn't look like 2-2-2 is happening this year, but here is what I found:

    Monday: MIA Brewing
    Wednesday: Firestone Walker brewer with vintage kegs
    Thursday: at 4, The Alchemist "with a bunch of cans"
    And the music fest on the 8th. In the past, the stage has been right across the street.

    Local 44 (corner of 44th Street and Spruce Street, Philadelphia) will have a variety of Russian River brews on draught, beginning at 11 a. m. on June 9. This is an annual event at the bar on the final Sunday of Philly Beer Week, and people line up early to get in, as some of the beers sell out pretty fast.

    Yup. When I walked into Exton Beverage on Friday and was able to grab Lawson’s, Single Cut, Three Floyd’s, KBS, The Abyss etc. etc. do we really need Philly Beer Week anymore?

    I'm sure the organizers of PBW likely have feedback from the participants but I wonder how attended a lot of the events are now. Like you said, I saw a few cases of KBS bombers stacked at my local beer distributor on Saturday.

    Heck, a magazine/website about the Beer Scene in Philly doesn't exist anymore. What's that say?

    Same at Bounds in Warrington....all that plus Focal Banger, Sump, multiple BCBS vintages, and others.

    I actually thought that PBW was stronger this year than it has been the past few. Triple Crossing, Bissell Brothers and Toppling Goliath were all great surprises.

    I agree with PHLDude. The events that I've attended this Beer Week have been superb.

    I'm sure by the end of the year we will also have Toppling Goliath distributing to Pennsylvania.
