Beer by the Strawberry Moonlight


This beer happening took me by surprise and if it wasn't for a thoughtful email I may of missed it. On Wednesday June 18th Chris Depeppe owner of Total Bru Marketing held his Full Mooner VI Beer Tasting at J.L. Sullivan's Speakeasy in Center City Philadelphia. Chris puts together a tasting of select craft beers on the eve of the full moon. This was the night of the strawberry moon and the event was appropriately named. Like Grey Lodge's Friday the Firkinteenth, Full Mooner is controlled by the calender and with some quick research it is easy to figure out when the next one occurs. This was the first tasting at J.L. Sullivans and Chris said that he tries to use different venues for each one. The crowd had the chance to sample beers from Legacy Brewing, Ommegang, Lindemans, River Horse, Dogfish Head and Lancaster Brewing. The cost to taste all evening is a small donation of $10.
