GoodBeer Club Meets Tonight

You think the Brewfest has beer? You might want to head out to Mister Goodbar and see what local beer is all about. Tonight, August 13th, at 7:30 PM will be a meeting of the GoodBeer Club at Mister Goodbar at 1110 Elmwood Avenue. Walk-ins are welcome but space is very limited. Pre-sale tickets were sold, and they’re warning ticket buyers to be there before 8 PM or call if they’re going to be later, otherwise a walk-in will fill their spot. So if you want to go and didn’t buy a ticket, plan on being there early.
The beer is being provided by Dogfish Head. Dogfish Head says it makes “off-centered ales for off-centered people,” and looking at the list of featured brews and recipes for tonight, they aren’t kidding. The recipes for tonight are Cajun corn bisque, red beans and rice with Andouille sausage, and apple pie. Those sound delicious, but not everyone’s a cook, so if you’re going for just the beer, here’s the list:
60 Minute IPA
120 Minute IPA
Raison D’Etre
Indian Brown
Festina Peche
Midas Touch Golden Elixir
Palo Santo Marron
ApriHop
Chateau Jiahu
Dogfish Head is from Delaware with the nearest distributors being in Liverpool, NY and Toronto, Ontario. In other words – if you miss tonight, you may not get the chance again for a long time to come. If you can’t make it tonight, check out their website to see what you’re missing. You can also go to Mister Goodbar’s website for more information about the GoodBeer Club, or you can e-mail Bobby at bobby@mistergoodbarelmwood.com

Ever since the Falafel Bar opened on Allen Street, it was only a matter of time before the Elmwood location was no longer for this world. I spoke to owner, Oded Rauvenpoor, who told me that the decision to close came when he was at a crossroads. He found himself happy with his Allentown diggs, but began eying another part of the city for the Elmwood restaurant. In the end, Oded decided that he wanted to try his hand in the University District (3476 Main Street). I guess there was …

Ummm... every one of those beers is readily available in the area at Premier Gourmet, Consumer's Beverages, and the Village Beer Merchant.
I'll be going, but I was very disappointed in this selection. Generally they bring in some beers that are not really available in this area, but all of those are, and I've had all of them as well. They're very good beers overall, but nothing hard to come by.

Someone comes up with this great idea & all of the negative nellie's come out. Why can't we accept that Buffalo loves beer & this will be a great time. Anyone have an extra ticket?
