This Week's Events

At The Perfect Pour in Columbia there will be a pair of beer tastings as usual. On Friday from 5-8 pm Lee from Stone Brewing with pour their various offerings including the IPA, Pale Ale, Ruination and more. On Saturday from 3-7 pm Suzanne from Washburn Wine Co. will offer an array of beers from Germany and Belgium.

They also mention that their fall seasonals are dwindling as they make room for an increasing number of winter seasonals. Among the new arrivals are: Brooklyn Winter, Southern Tier Old Man Winter, Scaldis Noel, Wild Goose Snow Goose, Anderson Winter Solstice, De Ranke Pere Noel, Clipper City '08 Below Decks, Corsendonk Christmas, Innstadt Wintersud, Sam Smith's Winter Welcome, Mikkeller Santa's Helper and Troeg's Mad Eld Ridgeway Mad Elf.

It's almost a little late for this, but Clipper City Brewing will be part of a "meet the brewery" night at the newly reopened Metropolitan Coffeehouse in Federal Hill from 6-9 tonight (TH).

As a reminder, DuClaw will release it's "Devil's Milk" barleywine, their best-selling seasonal, next week on Wednesday (Nov. 12) and Thursday (Nov. 13) nights.

Also tonight (Th Nov. 6) is "Flying Dog" night at Max's in Fell's Point. They'll have 9 Flying Dog beers on tap including the new Wild Dog in bottles. They will also hold a vertical tasting of the Gonzo Imperial Porter. For whatever reason I haven't found Flying Dog on tap at many places in the state of Maryland so hopefully this is a signal of better things to come.

Alright I'm off, but more updates to come as I stumble across them, my inbox is pretty flooded this week and I've barely been able to respond to and read a lot of what's been sent to me. I'll hack some of that down later and share the goodies with all of you.
