Ew, bugs in my beer? Why would I want to put bugs in my beer? I nearly had to be resuscitated when I choked down a dried fly during last year’s Philly Science Festival. But I trust Iron Hill Maple Shade‘s head brewer Chris LaPierre, so … I guess he knows what he’s doing?

When we say “Jersey’s Finest,” it’s often said with judgmental sarcasm. Most likely, it was about that douchebag you saw last night with his hair spiked and an angel winged skull stitched onto the back of his button-down. Not this time, though. This time, “Jersey’s Finest” will be associated with a fine beer, collaborated between two fine breweries, for a fine evening, tonight at 6 p.m at the Iron Hill Maple Shade location.
Jersey’s Finest is an “assertively hopped” American collaboration IPA between Chris LaPierre of Iron Hill Brewery and Casey Hughes of Flying Fish Brewing Company. The beer is hopped with three different varieties of experimental hops that provide the delightful bitterness we’ve all come to love in American IPAs.
Other rare and special beers will be offered during the debut, including…

The Industry gets a fair amount of its industry cred from the portraits of Philly food and drink heavyweights tacked up on the walls of the dining room. But those folks ain’t all just pretty faces. Starting Tuesday, November 27, owners Dave Garry and Heather Gleason and chef Pat Szoke will host their first “Off the Wall” event, which will bring the fellas from Iron Hill–Paul Rutherford (pictured) and Chris LaPierre (not)–down off the wall (literally) and into the dining room for a collaboration dinner.
“Many of the photos on our walls have a fun story behind them,” says Szoke. “The idea behind our ‘Off the Wall’ series is to have our colleagues come by and tell their stories while guests are enjoying their great food and/or drink.”
