Grey-Lodge

Grey Lodge does it right. They have a calendar filled with worthwhile events, and they’re always rotating through some bad-ass beers.
Take for example today, May 3rd, when they’ll be tapping eight Dogfish Head beers, all of them season or occasional brews (except for the 60 Minute, but you can’t not have the 60 Minute), and all of them delicious.

What the world sees as April 4th the Grey Lodge sees as 04/04. And that means that all day the Northeast Philadelphia beer bar will be pouring four Belgian-style Quads (a quad of Quads). The high-alcohol abbey style ales are all over 10% alcohol by volume and pack quite the punch.

So yes we know Black Friday is a big shopping day, but who says it can’t be a big drinking day too? And it seems like every bar out there is running specials with black and other dark beers.

Yes. Thank goodness, the weekend is finally here. It’s just starting to get chilly, but we’re already over this cold. While we’re strong proponents of curling up in front of a fire and drinking hot chocolate, we think you should bundle up and face the icy temperature for some of the fun events this weekend has to offer. Whether this means sampling top Philly chef’s best dishes in support of healthy babies, taking shots for Sandy relief, or trying out three Stephen Starr alum’s brick-oven pizza spot, we think its going to be worth it.

Troegs’ bigger Hershey brewery means more of its highly sought after Mad Elf for everyone. In fact it has been available in six-packs and cases for almost a month. But tonight is its debut on tap for 2012. So head up to Northeast Philadelphia to the Grey Lodge to try out the 2012 batch.
Also on tap will be more Troegs beer including a keg of Mad Elf from 2011, a Belgian Brown Ale and a fresh hopped Troegs beer.

We really love the events at the Grey Lodge from Friday the Firkinteenth to Saint Andrews Day. The Northeast Philadelphia beer bar knows how to (ab)use the calendar for all sorts of beer events.
Tonight Scoats and his crew is holding 10-Four Good Buddy Night. The event will pair beer with food that compliments each other, just like good buddies do.

It’s Friday the 13th and that means it is a Friday the Firkinteenth at the Grey Lodge in Northeast Philadelphia. There won’t be another until September of 2013 so miss today’s event and regret it for fourteen months.
As always there will be a plethora of firkins available throughout the day. The first set of seven firkins will be tapped at 10 a.m. and the Grey Lodge has 21 firkins in total. That means the event should last through to 10 p.m. unless people are particularly parched or prone to vacation today.
Follow along with what beers are pouring via the Grey Lodge’s news page.

Tomorrow is Friday the 13th and to Mike “Scoats” Scotese, owner of the Grey Lodge that means that it is time for another Friday the Firkinteenth. For the uninitiated, every Friday the 13th, Northeast Philadelphia’s best beer bar taps a series of cask conditioned firkins (small kegs of beer). At any given time there will be seven kegs pouring from the bar top at the Grey Lodge. When one kicks, another beer is tapped. This continues till Scoats and company run out of beer. With 20 or so firkins being tapped beginning at 10 a.m., that means there should be enough beer till about 10 p.m. or so.
If you haven’t been to a Grey Lodge event, you really should. They’re always among the most fun around.

Friday the 13th is a special day at the Grey Lodge. Every time the calendar hits the worst nightmare for a Triskaidekaphobiac, the Northeast Philadelphia bar presents a day of firkins. This Friday marks the 24th Firkenteenth and should see around 25 firkins tapped. Seven firkins will be pouring at a time and it is expected they’ll run around 10 p.m.
As always the list of beers is impressive. There will be several English casks in the lineup as well as the Grey Lodge’s first cask cider. Also look for the Philadelphia debut of Fifty Fifty Rockslide IPA and Flying Fish’s newest beer, Scarlet Fever.
