Before the Beer Week storm: Feb. 24 Ballast Point promo at Cantina Dos Segundos
 |
This year's fast-approaching Philly Beer Week features somewhere in the neighborhood of 650 to 700 individual events, many of which will be covered here on Meal Ticket as well as in CP print. But let's give some daps to smaller events sneaking in there before the day planner-ravaging maelstrom.
Tomorrow, Feb. 24, Cantina Dos Segundos (931 N. Second St., 215-629-0500, cantinadossegundos.com) will have two beers from San Diego's Ballast Point on tap — Victory at Sea and Big Eye IPA. Victory, which we've never had the pleasure of trying, is a "big California strong porter with a coffee and slight caramel taste," says Dos co-owner Stephen Simons. Meal Ticket fave Big Eye, which was on tap at Royal Tavern for awhile (we also recently grabbed a pint at Time) is something of a classic American IPA, with bright, piney hops cut by a little citrus. Very fun and easy to drink.
This is a great opportunity to check out both of these West Coast beers on draught in Philly. Have at it.
