Baltimore beer week coming this fall

Mark you calendars for Baltimore Beer Week, Oct. 9-18.

Modeled after Philly Beer Week (March 6-15), the event plans to celebrate the beer culture of Baltimore and the quality beer of the Chesapeake region.

As outlined by committee chair Joe Gold, the ten days will be filled with tastings, tours, beer dinners, and  educational seminars on all things beery.

The Baltimore Beer Week committee, of which I am a member, has met a couple of times. Things are still in the early organizing stage, but the dates are firm.

The Baltimore Beer Week web site will post more infomation as it becomes available. . Suggestions  and questions should be sent to jnkgold@comcast.net.

Anybody attend Philly Beer Week last year? Impressions?

There also was a beer week in New York. Anybody hit it?
