Love is On the Half Shell


I would consider myself an unromantic goon if I didn't post something with a Valentines Day focus. I am sure that most of you are making big plans for the weekend and have already purchased the appropriate love goodies to make your significant other swoon. If you are looking to get the love juices flowing a bit early then head to the London Grill tonight for Oysters and Love Stout. Yards Love Stout on the beer engine and London's oysters on special. Yards Brewmaster Tom Kehoe will be on hand starting at 6pm. The aphrodisiac qualities of the oysters combined with the effects of a few beers could make for an interesting evening. Remember if things get too hot and steamy be considerate; get a room.

Pittsburgh

Thanks for the PR on the Three Rivers Beer Club! If you have a chance to try the Torpedo, I recommend it.
