Weekly Beer Calendar Update: January 7 - January 13

Lots of additions to the January calendar since I published the monthly version earlier this week. Here's the next seven day block. From the mountains to the city streets, here below is where you'll find good beer and people.

While I don't envision any book events for at least the next month, I'll continue to stick a quick plug here pointing you to: a) my publisher; b) Amazon.com; c) BarnesAndNoble.com. As always, I graciously thank you for your continued support.

As you review beer events, don't forget PhillyTapFinder.com. As always, they host an impressive listing of beer event draft lists to help better inform your beer event planning.

Click through here for a look at the full monthly calendar of beer events around the Philadelphia region.
