A "Weekend of Belgian Beer" at Hudson Street Stackhouse

Baltimore Beer Week is more than halfway over, but some great
events will happen over the next few days.

I am involved with one of them, for the second year in a row.

"B' More Belgians: A Weekend of Belgian Beer," begins tomorrow
at Hudson Street Stackhouse in the Canton neighborhood of Baltimore.
Owner Dominic DeSantis and I will have all 36 taps pouring Belgian
beer through Sunday.

I helped select the beers for the event, and wrote most of the beer
descriptions.

The Stackhouse opens at 2 pm Friday, and 11 am Saturday and Sunday.

The October/November issue of Celebrator Beer News has been out
for a couple of weeks, and I'm happy to report that I have an article
on the Great Belgian Beer Dinner and Tongeren's Stadsbrouwerij
Au Phare on page 7. The entire new issue of Celebrator is on-line
here. Photos from the beer dinner are shown below.

Beersel Lambic.)

I wrote a preview of the beer dinner, held April 25th in Roosdaal,
Flemish Brabant, here.

I visited the excellent new Stadsbrouwerij Au Phare the same day,
for lunch. While Au Phare's brewery was installed at that time, they
will not brew their first beer until October 21st.
