Philly Beer Week 2009. Seriously? Seriously.

Somewhere in the ballpark of 500 daily events over 10 days at over 90 establishments in and outside of the city. You know where to find the updates. (UPDATED: 3/5/09) I've been fond of saying over these past weeks that this year's lineup is looking so solid that if you told me I could only go to one event and you'd spin the wheel to choose my event, there'd be little chance that I'd be disappointed in the outcome. Last year, there was a flurry of (sorry to say) "events" (term used quite loosely) at two-bit bars scheduled in the last minutes that probably didn't deserve to be riding the coattails of Philly Beer Week. I'm not seeing that this year and that's a very good thing in my estimation. But, still...how to choose? Party on...

Thanks. Love that spreadsheet.

BTW I think the Philly Beer Week site is slow cause of all those maps under the details link and maybe the images too. Sheesh...I thought I had a virus or something.

And SEPTA was kind enough to print up ride passes for the event with the New York skyline as a background graphic instead of Philadelphia - hey - what did you expect - this is SEPTA at (work?)
