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
