The Heavy Seas Bacon and Beer Fest – Pirates and Beer Edition

(if you’d like to read about the bacon and other foodstuffs featured at this horrifically amazing event, go here) SO I’ve been wracking my brain over and over about what to say about the Heavy Seas Bacon and Beer Fest put on by Clipper City Brewery the other day, and I just can’t really do it justice. The event was positively magical; all you can drink Heavy Seas and Clipper City brews (which will get you bombed incredibly quickly as it turns out), bacon centric foods and frigging pirates walking and ROLLER SKATING around – it was simply the best way to spend half of a Saturday afternoon.

The Boot makes a triumphant return

Over the years …and years and years of my long career as an alcohol enthusiast, there are a few traditions and that I have always embraced at a few of my local favorite pour houses. Karaoke, house shots, pole dancing, whatever the case may be; one of my all-time favorites at Captain Larry’s was always the time-tested awesomeness that is The Boot Race. Two teams, two boots, the first team to pass around and finish their respective boot received the honor of having the next boot bought for them by the losing team. And considering the fact that the boot could be filled with 2 liters of whatever was on draft for a nominal fee, it’s pretty clear as to why this event would be a favorite of mine.

As promised, I have begun mapping City Paper’s top 100 coldest beers lists, and will be presenting them year by year in the Google Earth Projects page.
