Weekly Beer Calendar Update: July 16 - July 22

Here in the Philly region, the rains continue to fall from the sky keeping most things growing quite nicely which is unlike some summers. Never failing, though, is the continual pouring of great beers at events all around the region. Get out there and drink 'em up. I'd mention that it'll help keep you growing, but that my suggest health benefits from drinking beer, so I'll stop now ;-)

Also, please keep my book events in mind where I'm talking beer, selling/signing books, and in some cases tasting beer with anyone who shows up. The events thus far have been successful and I'm looking forward to keeping it going. This coming Sunday I'll be at Round Guys, Wednesday at The Drafting Room, and Thursday at Earth Bread + Brewery. Busy week for all of us!

Here's a link to the full list of future and past events where you can catch me selling Beer Lover's Mid-Atlantic.

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.
