BREW REVUE: Three great tastings down south tonight

Better than peanut butter and jelly.

This evening is positively bubbly with beer potential, with tastings and deals at three distinctly different South Philadelphia venues. Plan accordingly and you could even hit all three.

Rogue at Di Bruno Bros. (930 S. Ninth St.) 5-8 p.m., free tasting. Miss Chocolate Stout herself, Sebbie Buhler, is in the house with John, Hunter and Zeke, doing what they do best: pairing beer with food. Buy the three featured cheeses as a set for $25; everything else is 10 percent off during the event.

Chocolate Stout with Colston Bassett Stilton
Chipotle Ale with Rogue River Smokey Blue
Dirtoir with Pestun di Castagne

Bell's Brewing at South Philly Tap Room (1509 Mifflin St.) 4 p.m.-2 a.m., pay-as-you-go for $4 pints of Hopslam, Oberon, Two Hearted, Java, Brown and Pale Ale. One of the Great Lakes' premier brewers.

Stone's at Hawthornes (738 S. 11th St.) 6-8 p.m., free tasting of every Stone's beer Hawthornes carries: Oaked Arrogant Bastard, Pale, IPA, Ruination IPA, Old Guardian and more.
