Tuesday night, I had the great pleasure of attending the Five Course Winter Brewmaster’s Dinner at Iron Hill North Wales, presented by Head Brewer Vince Desrosiers and Chef Tim Andrews. Five dishes, five beers, five fabulous beer and food pairings.
14 breweries, 30 beers, 1 dead pig With a tagline like that, how can you go wrong? Throw in some live music and a little sunshine, and you’ve got yourself quite a fine little Saturday afternoon!
The third and final event I attended during Philly Beer Week was Blues, Brews, & BBQ at Iron Hill Wilmington, featuring live blues music on the Wilmington Riverfront!
Another event I attended during Philly Beer Week was a beer and chocolate pairing at Iron Hill West Chester. Head brewer Larry Horwitz was on hand to pour his wonderful Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout along side some fantastic chocolates from Éclat Chocolate.
Last week was the 2010 Philly Beer Week! I was able to attend a few great events, one of which was a talk called “Tasting Beer with Randy Mosher,” where Mr. Radical Brewing himself led a tutored tasting of four beers at Iron Hill North Wales.
This past Saturday was the 3rd annual SAVOR: An American craft beer and food experience! SAVOR is one of my favorite days of the year. I’ve been to every one since its inception in 2008, and was ecstatic to be able to represent RateBeer this time around!
That’s right, I said goat race. On May 2nd, the annual Sly Fox Bock Festival & Goat Race was held at the brand new Phoenixville, PA location. There were beer brats, pretzels, German music, and most importantly, bocks. Oh yeah, and goats!
This past Saturday was the Heavy Seas Real Ale & BBQ Fest at Clipper City Brewing Company! Or is that Heavy Seas Brewing Company…
This past Sunday was the 6th annual Brewer’s Plate at the Penn Museum in Philadelphia. This phenomenal event, featuring Philadelphia’s premier local food and craft beer, was a fundraiser for Fair Food, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing locally grown food into the Philadelphia marketplace.
On Sunday March 14th, the sixth annual Brewer’s Plate is coming to the Penn Museum in Philadelphia!
