Dark Lord Day 2012 Recap

Saturday, April 28 was the annual Dark Lord Day over at Three Floyds Brewing in Munster, Indiana. For those of you who don’t you, the event is a festival based around the release of their imperial stout called Dark Lord. The event was a blast! I had planned on writing a big long post about everything that we did, but photos and video will have to suffice (for now, at least).

A school hosting a beer tasting? What a great idea!

The event will definitely be worth checking out, so get your tickets now!

Join the Montessori School of Dayton and their families for our first annual craft beer and food tasting event. It will be a great time to make a few new friends, enjoy a few laughs, and taste a few good beers (and a few good soft drinks) along with some tasty food.

The Brew Ha-Ha (adults only) takes place on Jan. 28 from 5 -10 pm. Tickets are $25 per person in advance and $30 the night of the event. Attendees receive 10 tasting tickets and additional tickets can be purchased for $1 at the door. Also be sure to purchase 50/50 raffle tickets to win cash and prizes the night of the event. Proceeds benefit the MSD Capital Improvement fund.

 

Sample some of the Midwest’s best craft beers and learn a thing or two about the variety of beer types and brewing styles. Enjoy craft beers from Bell’s, Troegs, Stoudts, Ohio Brewing, North Peak, Weyerbacher, Founders, Dark Horse, New Holland and Brew Kettle.Guests also get to keep the commemorative tasting pint glass.

 

Appetizers and desserts will be paired with several of the beers for a unique beer and food pairing experience. On-site beer sales will be offered at the end of the evening.

 

Please invite your friends and families to join. Space is limited so get your tickets early! (We have a feeling they’ll disappear fast!)

 

Snobby Beer Blog – Beer Tasting at Trolley Stop

Yesterday I went over to the Trolley Stop in the lovely Oregon District in Dayton, Ohio to attend the monthly beer tasting. The beer tasting is hosted by none other than Mike Schwartz from Belmont Party Supply (my favorite place to buy beer in Dayton). They had some really great beers, and everyone voted for their favorite – the winner gets served on tap the following month at The Trolly Stop! There were 9 beers total. Here’s some photos from the night! Click Read More to see all the photos!

 

 

Here's some of the beers from the night! Missing beers are Left Hand's Stranger (I rated it a 3/5) and Castelain Blond Biere De Garde by Brasserie Castelain à Bénifontaine (I rated it a 2/5)
