After an understandably slow start to the beer calendar in early January, the month goes out with a bang around Philadelphia with over 30 events planned for the final eight days. A larger-than-usual section for beer dinners should help keep us all warm and fortified through the heart of these cold winter months.
Check out the entire January 2013 calendar over here. If I'm missing any that you feel should be on here, don't hesitate to let me know.
