DC Beer Week

DCist has a great round up of the DC Beer Week events here.

I actually don't think we're going to attend any of these events... shocking, I know.

We thought about attending Granville Moore's event, but $75pp seems a bit pricey.

I will definitely not be going to the Black Squirrel since last time we went there, the beer selection wasn't great AND my food had a piece of plastic in it. When I pointed it out to the bartender, he didn't seem to care. Gross. I wanted to like the place, because, at the time, I lived in Adams Morgan. Don't plan to go back...

The other events seem ok, however, we have better beers at home, so we'll likely be drinking them instead. I'd love to see DC Beer Week happen again, with better events, and at more places!

In my ideal Beer Week world, there would be an event at the Brickskeller (Say what you want about the Brick, their events with breweries and Bob Tupper are overwhelmingly great), a dinner at Pizza Paradiso, and some sort of event at Rustico- preferably with beer director, Greg, speaking. Speaking of Rustico- the new menu additions are great. And they still have the duck confit pizza. Mmmm. I'm looking forward to some great new things from the new chef!
