Weekend
Posted by Foobooz on July 6th, 2007
Friday
Christmas comes early or is it late to the Grey Lodge in the Northeast. Anyway there’ll be no Santa crap but lots of good seasonal beer like a keg of Troegs’ Mad Elf and some Sierra Nevada Celebration.
It’s also First Friday which usually means rain so if you’re going out in Old City plan on ducking in a bar for a drink. We suggest National Mechanics and steal us a John Street pint glass, thanks.
Saturday
Drink your wheaties! That’s the plan at South Philadelphia Tap Room where they are hosting their wheat beer festival. $3 pints of local wheat beers from 2 PM.
If you’re feeling lucky and why wouldn’t you, it’s 7-7-07 then head to 707 where they’ll be kicking off their 707 Lounge concept with drink deals and late-night food. We once heard that funnel cake loses all its calories after 11!
Sunday
Explore the Schuylkill River Sunday with Hidden River Outfitters and a kayak tour. Learn some local history and we don’t mean back when Grape Street was Chemistry. The $50 tour includes instruction, equipment rental and a guided tour, capped off with lunch at the Manayunk Brewery & Restaurant.
Periphadelphia, a new blog focusing on events outside Center City tips us off to a Jam Session with Roger Prieto Quartet at Ortlieb’s Jazzhaus Sunday night. Go, you always say you should go to Ortlieb’s more anyway.
