Frederick Beer Week is fast approaching. As you may have heard on episode 2 of our nascent podcast, there are five days/nights worth of events planned. Some require that you book ahead of time, so don’t delay. (The Brew Fest in particular is expected to sell out.)
Sadly, the laws of physics prevent me from attending all the events being as they are the same time in different places, but I’m going to attend as many as I can.
