CBS in Philly

Thanks for the info! Their menu (both beer and food) does look awesome!

 

Anyone have info on the railroad event? my gf lives near there and have never been there.

 

In for an answer.

 

They posted on their facebook page last night that it will be first come first serve in 6 or 8oz pours. Tapping is listed at 1pm. They aren't sure of the pricing yet but would know by Thursday.

 

What time do they open? I've never been.

Also, should I get there early or what's the expected level of craziness expected?

 

I'm pretty sure they open at 11. I'd expect it to be pretty crowded, but I've also never been there either. It's my birthday and am going to Tired Hands with my wife... figured we'd try to swing by Greeks first. For what its worth they have an event page set up for it on their facebook, might give you some idea on what to expect.

 

Blue Dog just sent out an e-mail that they are tapping their CBS on March 28th. Not surprised they got a keg, as I remember talking to the owners of Founders at an event during PBW a few years back and he said that the Blue Dog(s) sell the most Founders in the area.

 

I always looks forward to their events. I always figured they had to be a big Founders account; they've had CBS as well as Kaiser Curmudgeon and Black Biscuit in the past. They don't just dole that stuff out to anyone.

 

Which Blue Dog?

 

Chalfont.

 

Not quite philly but not unreasonably far (considering the pizza boy tapping was posted here), but Holy Hound in York PA is tapping their keg March 3rd, selling tickets from 4-6 and tapping it then. One ticket per person, once tickets have all been redeemed, additional pours available (if there's any left)

 

The Greeks Next Door will be doing 6oz pours for $7.25. They estimate that the first 125 people will get a pour. Tap time - 1:00 p.m.

 

Got my pour today. Wasn't as full as thought it was going to be. Could have easily gotten back in line for 2nds.

Overall, wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be, and was a little too sweet. Good, but not worthy of the hype it receives IMO.

 

Ah the hype machine. It was still pouring at Railroad yesterday when I left around 3:30, but it was gone today.

 

Will be on tap at Isaac Newton's on March 14th. Tickets for CBS.

 

PTF just put out the POPE will be doing KBS & CBS on 03/25.

 

Bru in philly has CBS 3/28

 

Today at tnd

 

Had a few last night at Fountain Porter. Very nice.

 

Likewise. If I had known earlier than 6pm, it could've been a messy afternoon.
