Qimby Beer Hall, 1945 NW Quimby St.
Friday, February 28th and Saturday, March 1, from noon to 10 p.m.
Although I've essentially given up blogging about events (too many!), I will direct your attention to one this weekend: the Lucky Lab Big Beer Fest at the Quimby brewery. Ben Flerchinger has been curating a big beer fest at the Lucky Lab for a number of years now (the name "barley wine" seems to come in and out of the title), and it's always worth a look. What makes it interesting is not just that big beers are the focus, but that Ben stores various vintages and pulls them out later on. Of the fifty-odd beers he has in hand, only ten are from 2013. He's got one from 2008 and 15 are 2010 or earlier. Each year before sending out the line-up, Ben does a round of QA to make sure his kegs still contain potable potents, so you're not wandering into a crapshoot.
You can see the full line-up here.
