Your Philly Beer Week Cheat Sheet

It’s time to welcome in unofficial start to summer (with some booze, of course): Philly Beer Week is here! Now through June 12th, our city will be flowing with the best ales, lagers, and stouts alike in a celebration of all things beer, and the excitement is real.

Some of us are used to using a beer delivery service and having our favourite beers delivered to our front door. However, this beer festival gives us all the opportunity to try new beers and get a taste for some new flavours.

Now, if you’re anything like me, sorting through this massive list of events and picking the few that you’d like to make time for is a high pressure situation and involves a lot of time that’s pretty fleeting at the moment. Another true life fact: in my years in Philly, I’ve never even been to an official Philly Beer Week event! Mostly because I had to look up a third beer type to list above and don’t want to embarrass myself in front of bearded, beer-loving men, but don’t be mistaken: PBW is for everyone!

To help us all sort through the list, I asked the Philly Beer Week team to narrow down their favorite events to a Top 5 list for PBW beginners (you’ll see those labeled with {PBW Starter Pack} below), plus I threw in 5 of my own picks that just seemed too amazing to leave out. Check out the list, and let me know which #PBW2016 events you’re heading to this year. Happy drinking! xx

The Philly Visitor Tour You Haven’t Taken Yet

Well, it’s taken me a year and a half of blogging to finally welcome in my first guest post, but here she is. I met the author, Kelly, my freshman year of college and we’ve been best buds ever since. Kelly is from Long Island and moved to Roxborough for a few years after graduation. After much coaxing, she finally moved to Center City this year (we’re neighbors!) and with that, came her visitors. Kelly’s apartment has a constant flow of out-of-towners, and she knows exactly how to keep them busy (and buzzed). Her Philadelphia “tours” show the best our city has to offer, minus the standard historical sites and long lines. Her visitors always love their stops so much, I asked Kelly to share her go-to’s with all of you.

Another great year mummin around! ☂️⁣ ⁣ Af Another great year mummin around! ☂️⁣

After the mummers parade was rescheduled due to Saturday’s weather, we got blessed yesterday with 60 degrees & even some ☀️! ⁣
⁣
@jimmypennz is a member of the @twostreetstompers, so I joined him and his group stomping down 2nd Street after the official parade. It was great to be with family & friends, dance to the bands, and say “happy new year!” to neighbors & mums all day long. ⁣
⁣
I hope you all had a wonderful start to your 2022! 🖤⁣

🥾 @stompontour … I am OBSESSED! ⁣⁣ ⁣ We 🥾 @stompontour … I am OBSESSED! ⁣⁣
⁣
We go to a good number of shows and plays 🎭, and while I’ve always *heard* of STOMP, I never knew enough about it to pick it over something else. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Last night @kimmelculturalcampus invited me to STOMP’s opening night for their week here in Philly, and I’m officially here to say: pick it, choose it, STOMP IT. 🥾🥾🥾⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My mom & I absolutely LOVED the show. It’s basically 8 (incredibly good looking) men & women that play different “songs” and do different “skits” completely & fully with ordinary objects… like shopping carts, inner tubes, street signs, & so much more. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But it’s FUNNY! Without saying any words, we got to know the characters (especially @cityboypr’s 😂) and laughed between our whispered “OMGs” and “wooows.” ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I am absolutely so thankful I got to see this iconic show and share my experience. It’s truly a must see - especially appropriate for musicians, dancers, and even kids! 🥁⁣⁣
⁣⁣
@stompontour has 7 shows left now through 1/2, so grab your mask & vax card & head over to see this show that will help you kick off 2022 with a bang! 💥😉⁣
