This weekend is packed with winter beer events and with snow showers in the forecast, we can’t think of anything more delightful than drinking beer. Incidentally, you could replace “snow showers” with “sun” or “rain” in that sentence, and we’d feel the same. Saturday also marks the anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition, which we celebrate early and often. Read on for the suds-soaked schedule.
• Bridgid’s is celebrating the halfway point to Beer Week 2010. Tonight they’re having a promo with $6 drafts of Duvel Green and $5 pours of Ommegang’s Three Philosphers and Adoration; Saturday night they’ll celebrate the anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition with a keg of Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA. and Sunday they’ll have three kegs of Terrapin’s Reunion beer - $1 of each $5 pint goes to the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation.
