Dale's 10k at Sly Fox
Last evening Dale Van Wieren had his 10,000th beer at Sly Fox Phoenixville. Since it is across the street I thought I should attend. This was also the first time I've stayed at Sly Fox for a drink, usually I just buy bottles.
I started with Saison Brune which was possibly the best Sly Fox beer I've had to date and then moved to Dale's 10k. I'm not sure what he thought of the beer that he helped brew for the occasion but I wasn't particularly impressed with it. Maybe as my tastes continue to develop I could appreciate it, if they were to make it again. I did get to congratulate and shake hands with dale though.

Vesuvio Bar and Restaurant
Friday night I met up with Dain Saint of Cipher Prime at Vesuvio in South Philly. When I got there they were shooting some pool and had had a few drinks already. Earlier that day EA Games released the iPhone version of their game Auditorium! If you get it you can also enter a contest to win a Flash version of Auditorium but submitting a picture of you beating 4:3! [Announcement]
Except for PBR, all the beer is $4 a piece. While this certainly is convenient it limits the types of beer they would serve, such as no strong dark Belgian's. They did however have Leffe Blonde and a good selection of locals including Sly Fox and Victory. This was the first time I've ever had Sly Fox on tap, despite my proximity to their Phoenixville location, and it was quite good. I find the bottles I get from Sly Fox to be rather inconsistent, even when purchased together.
Full list for the night:
