Favorite Beer List of the Week (No List Addition)


As you can tell from the photos the Favorite Beer List of the Week comes without a draft board photo.  The one in the background doesn't count. Blame my poor skills as a photographer for that little goof. However, those of you who attended this year's one and only Friday the Firkinteenth at The Grey Lodge can vouch for the awesome cask line up. Thirty firkins set to pour throughout the day with 7 on at a time.

I managed to arrive around 40 minutes after the 9am start time and after a short time standing slid into a comfortable position at the bar.  Unlike the last Firkenteeth I attended it took longer than 30 minutes for the first cask to kick. Somewhere near the three hour mark the final drops of Dock Street Summer Session were poured as a joyous crowd cheered the changing of the brew. Unfortunately with limited time it was my one and only cask kicking experience of the day.

For those of you who couldn't make it to the great Northeast this year, mark your calenders now. Your next chance is May 13, 2011
