Last Saturday, the Craft Beer Fest at the Navy Yard — a Philly Beer Week special preview event — set the tone for the week’s upcoming festivities as brewheads raised their four-ounce glasses every 30 minutes in a toast to “America’s Best Beer-Drinking City.” This Friday, the week — more like a full 10 days — officially kicks off with Joe Sixpack’s Philly Favorites, a sampling of favorite local ales and lagers.

Some of the other 100-plus events include food and beer pairings with Sunday’s The Brewer’s Plate, and a region-wide “Meet & Greet” on Tuesday evening, when area bars host brewers from around the world. And, the ’burbs will be getting their drink on, too. Check out phillybeerweek.org for a complete listing of events.
