Damn Dark Lord Day. The hell with Heady Topper. Kick KBS to the curb. The beer dork event, bar none, is Brasserie Cantillon's annual Zwanze Day, which is this Saturday, October 1. Only 60 locations worldwide are selected to participate in the release of this #whalezbro sour ale from Brussels, and Dexter's own NULL Taphouse (aka Jolly Pumpkin) is one of them!
But unless you've been living under a rock, you probably already knew that. Maybe what you didn't know is that tickets for this event are still available. In my case, I was faced with the cruel choice of going to Zwanze Day or watching the Michigan Wolverines beat the crap out of the Wisconsin Badgers in person. I chose my Wolverines, but I'm writing a nasty letter to Belgium complaining about scheduling stuff like this during football season.
Anyway, the folks at Jolly Pumpkin have made sure this event goes way beyond an ultra-rare, OMG beer release. They've invited more than a dozen breweries from across the country known for their sour ales to also participate, and the list will make even the most jaded of Michigan beer dorks soil his trousers. Names like Jester King, Allagash, Tired Hands, Monkish, Lost Abbey, and plenty more. See? Go change your pants.
I could go on and on, but why bother when Jolly Pumpkin already has. If you need no further details and want to go straight to buying your tickets, follow this link.
