Let's go ahead and close out the beer events calendar for the year. You've just 15 days remaining to find some new favorite beers, breweries, and bars of 2015. I've even dug up a few New Year's Day events that I'll include here just for good measure. Have at it and while you're at it, have a wonderful Christmas and New Year's holiday.
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 week, I'll be in Elkins Park, Pa. and Philadelphia, Pa. Here's a link to the full list of future and past events where you can catch me selling Beer Lover's Mid-Atlantic. Just these and then one more opportunity to find me out and about with my book before year-end 2015.
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.
