Swoon! Trivial Pursuit with Sam Calagione

Martin Schoeller for the New Yorker

Philly Beer Week 2010 blasts off in just 30 days, and participating venues are starting to tease what sort of parties they'll be throwing this time around. I'm hoping for plenty of creativity from breweries and bar operators, like this Tiger Beat-worthy evening Resurrection Ale House (2425 Grays Ferry Ave.) is hosting Wed., June 9. That's when fans of Dogfish Head's unique brews or just the strapping man behind them will have a shot at playing Trivial Pursuit with Sam Calagione himself. For those less susceptible to Sam's charms, owners Leigh Maida and Brendan Hartranft sweeten the deal by devoting all of Resurrection's 12 taps to Dogfish Head brews, plus 75-Minute IPA on cask. We'll be highlighting top-drawer Beer Week events on Meal Ticket through June 14; search Beer Week 2010 in Categories to see them all.
