BARCADE IS OPEN

WHY ARE YOU STILL READING THIS??? GOOOO (Lots of good stuff in Fishtown this weekend, more updates soon, but start here and check back on your super phone)

Philly Look What You've Done....

...A great job of looking up solid beers! Swing over to our friends at Philly Tap Finder and read the hits (Am kind surprised Graduate Hospital/Gray's Ferry isn't mentioned more, but what can you do - except drink there more!)

Resurrection - of the Twice Fried Chicken - And 2nd Birthday Bash!

Starting tomorrow, Wednesday the 21st of September, Twice Fried Chicken returns to Resurrection Ale House!!! This amazing dish that skyrocketed the Gray's Ferry spot to not just the beer - but food spotlight has returned after been gone for many months. The date also marks 2 years of Resurrection being a kick ass place to get food and brews. The party offers some of said food complimentary starting at 5pm and some serious delicious brews including: Schneider Aventinus Eisbock (Poured from a wooden barrel off the bar), Leipziger Gose, and Dogfish Head Chateau Jiahu (Randallized with Sake-Soaked Hop Leaves). So go get some!!!

BARCADE OPENS SOON!

Word on the street is Barcade - right off Girard in Fishtown - will be opening in September (with in two weeks in fact!) So get your quarters ready. Some preliminary scouting has games Tertis, Donkey Kong and Star Wars. There is also a beautfil outdoor space. Food with be things that do not require forks and knives which is smart - I'll have a hard enough time balancing my beer and my sandwich while still playing. Utensils are so last century. The actual date has been very hush hush, but once I know then you'll know. If you're curious about the space stop by Bookspace and walk across the street to the red building with all the paper blocking out the windows and peek through the cracks!
