It’s only brewed three few times a year, but for hoppy beer fanatics, Dogfish Head’s 120 Minute IPA is the ultimate extreme brew. It’s a motherlode of hops and at 18% ABV, is very high in alcohol for a beer. Beer, wine and cheese cafe Tria has scored some precious kegs of the potent stuff and will tap it today at both of its locations. There’s a limit of two five-ounce tasting portions per customer. With the Phillies game on tonight, that seems like a wise decision. Neither Tria has a TV, so if you’re going to a bar to watch the game, here are some suggestions.
• Bridgid’s in Fairmount offers $3 Yards select drafts and $2 domestic bottles during every Phillies playoff game, plus five of the drafts will be discounted.
• $3 cans of Sly Fox Pilsner or Pale Ale, $3 bottle of Ithaca Apricot Wheat and $3.50 pints of Yards at Jose Pistola’s throughout the game.
• The Swann Lounge at the Four Seasons will show all NLCS games on two televisions and serve free snacks. They also have a new bistro menu.
• South Philly Bar & Grill offers 11 plasma TVs, $2.50 Yuengling drafts and $2.75 Yuengling bottles, $5 “Ballpark Baskets” that include two hot dogs and waffle fries; bring a ticket stub from any event at any of the arenas anytime for a 10 percent discount off the bill.
• 13 at the Marriott has 22 high-def LCD screens, plus “flat screen-equipped booths.” Serving $4 appetizers and $3 drafts, including Yards Philly Pale Ale.
• McGillins will serve a Phanatic Pheckin Bomb, which involves combining a shot of Apple Pucker, three-quarters of a shot of Feckin Irish Whiskey and then dropping that into three-quarters of a pint of Original Sin Apple Cider.
