Nov. 12: The return of the Craft Beer Express
Next Saturday, Nov. 12, there'll be 12 bars equipped with busses to cart your craft beer-lovin' behind all over this craft beer-lovin' city. You can start wherever you'd like, but the first neighborhood on the 2011 Craft Beer Express tour for us will be Fishtown: Kraftwork (541 E. Girard Ave.) will be featuring some strong nitro beers and Johnny Brenda's (1201 N. Frankford Ave.) is offering an all-wet-hopped lineup, including Philadelphia Brewing Co.'s seasonal Harvest from the Hood IPA, brewed with hops cultivated at Greensgrow Farms. In Northern Liberties, Standard Tap (901 N. Second St.) is planning on serving Dogfish Head's Ancient Ales; a little further west, there will an abundance of porters and stouts at The Institute (529 N. 12th St.).
Michigan's Bell's and New York's Ommegang will be taking over Fairmount's Bishop's Collar (2349 Fairmount Ave.) and Kite & Key (1836 Callowhill Ave.), respectively. Jose Pistola's (263 S. 15th St.) is the next stop on the Express before The Sidecar (2201 Christian St.) for Founders beers. The P.O.P.E. (1501 E. Passyunk Ave.) will have a slew of pumpkin brews on hand in South Philly; if you don't feel like waiting for a bus (they run on 25-minute circuits), just walk around the corner to Devil's Den (1148 S. 11th St.) for a variety of autumnal options. Brauhaus Schmitz (718 South St.) will pour a "Bock-It" list of doppelbocks before you stumble into a "battle" between reps from Great Lakes and New Holland Brewing at the end of the line, Old City's Race Street Café (208 Race St.).
Remember: Even though the CBX will take you to all these watering holes, you have to find your own safe ride home. The Express will run from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.; tix available here.
