Their website says lunch is included. $50/person. I wonder what the beer list looks like other than the 4 oz. of Rare that they say will be poured for you.
I was definitely going to be there until I saw the $50 price. Without knowing what was going to be available to us, decided to pass on it. Now I kind of regret it.
Considering that buying a sandwich, deviled eggs, chips, two beers + tax/tip would probably cost about $40 there (probably rounding up here.. or am I?), $50 doesn't sound too bad. They usually have a respectable lineup of drafts on a daily basis, so I can only imagine what their lineup would be this Saturday. I would definitely go if I didn't have a wedding to go to.
I'll be there. Here's an article with some of the beers : http://www.beerpaperla.com/beer/82-hollingshead-s-deli-50th-anniversary
Visited Hollinghead for the first time today. Awesome place. Tickets for the event this weekend are sold out.
I haven't bought anything from GI post buyout. I had a 2010 summer ale last month that was still quite good.
