Canton Bar Brawl

Anger, fists, and blood
what are they fighting over,
the girl or the beer?

Baltimore Beer Week

Baltimore Beer Week?
Isn’t that every week?
OK. Bring it on!

Written by Captain Hops.

References: According to Rob Kasper, the first Baltimore Beer Week is scheduled from October 8-18, 2009. Apparently it will be so monumental that we need more than a week to contain it. I’ll drink to that!

Flying Dog Haiku Contest

Why do beer lovers
Gravitate to short poems?
There’s more time for beer.

Written by Captain Hops.

Check out the complete instructions here. The prizes are no joke… $50 gift certificates to the Flying Dog Online Store will go to the writers behind the top five haiku.

Max’s Belgian Beer Fest

Awful dilemma:
Announce Max’s Belgian Fest
Or keep it secret?

Written by Captain Hops.

References: Max’s Taphouse in Fells Point is having it’s Fifth Annual Belgian Beer Fest February 13-15, 2009. I went for a few hours last year and it was a real treat. It got a little crowded and I’d love to keep it all to myself this year, but that would just be mean.
