Philly Beer Week 2017

I actually am not sure. I could have sworn I saw either Hawthornes or BBE post as well, but went back and fact checked their Instagrams. Maybe they just got a package from their distributor on the slide. I suppose I just assumed it had to do with the Wicked Weed distro expansion.

 

There was the beer and metal fest around that time, so I think some places were able to get bottles through temporary distribution

 

The Burial website doesn't list PA (although it doesn't list NY either):

They've had distribution in ny since sometime in January.

I'd love Philly distribution though

 

any events worthwhile tomorrow? heading down for Hermit Thrush at Teresas but was debating what to go to in the early afternoon

 

I was thinking of doing a Hermit Thrush event as well, yesterday, but it was too late in the evening. I'm hoping that they're coming to PA, otherwise I'll have to get some hauled back from VT and I really hate to impose on people. Hmmm... maybe I'll go to the P.O.P.E. at 4 pm and have my wife meet me there after work - of course there are no details listed for the event so who knows what'll really be there.

Exactly what I was talking about earlier. There's nothing listed on the Philly Loves Beer page (the official site of Philly Beer Week), but phillytapfinder has it! Hilarious!

 

Jim,

There is also a Hermit Thrush event tomorrow evening (6 pm) at Teresa’s Next Door:

Cheers!

 

Once again, no real details on the "official" website... I guess I'll check phillytapfinder.com!

Seriously though, Teresa's is a little out of the way for me, closer to the city my wife can meet me there (and keep an eye on me!). I do love Hermit Thrush though...

 

The important thing is that you get your Hermit Thrush 'fix' satisfied.

Do you know the two guys of Hermit Thrush. Apparently they are buddies who went to Swarthmore College together (10 years ago?).

Cheers!

 

Here's a Hermit Thrush event at Capone's I might go to...

HERMIT THRUSH MEET THE GANG FROM VERMONT FRIDAY 6/8 NOON to 2:00

... except that I don't know when it is! Is it Friday, or is it 6/8?


Hee hee, here's another good one for today:

Collaboration Night @ Old Eagle Tavern, 7 am to 11 am... it's 9:30 am right now, I'd better hurry!

 

Ah, Matt's Mistakes. Never change. Or maybe do so we know what's going on.

 

My local distributor got Tin Cup Camp Stout Friday and after chatting, it sounds like distro was planned to go along with WW but because of the buyout, they are still going ahead with it, just not with WW. Time will tell I suppose

 

In town for the evening, anything I "need" to check out?

 

Cinder at 1500 Locust has some good stuff on their taplist assuming it's still current.
