THE AMERICAN CRAFT BEER WEEKEND PICKS

Hey it’s Friday – Work’s been brutal and you’re ready to shut down and some fun. Well good, because we’re all about it and we’ve got all kinds of ideas for you. From the nation’s coolest beer festivals, movies, and music to cutting-edge TV  we’ve got your back big-time. Plus we’ve a special weekend beer pick for you too, because we know you’ll be drinking!

So welcome to our awesome Weekend Picks…

A Craft Beer Festival Louisiana-Style (Lake Charles, LA) – The South’s craft beer scene is as vital and impressive as any region in the country and the spotlight will be on it this weekend. The 1st Annual Louisiana Winter Beer Festival is kicking things off this Saturday, February 21, at the Historic Calcasieu Marine National Bank building in Downtown Lake Charles. This beautifully restored, early 20th century bank building will be home to the region’s most exciting and cutting-edge brewers and they’ll all be serving up their best  so you absolutely don’t want to miss it.

, THE AMERICAN CRAFT BEER WEEKEND PICKSOn the Big Screen – The movies that Hollywood releases in January and February are usually films that they’re worried about. And although Hot Tub Time Machine 2 will probably suck, it’s still unfortunately the most promising new release this weekend. Hot Tub I made some money (hence Hot Tub II), but at least the first film starred John Cusack. But he thankfully came to his senses and bailed on this questionable sequel and maybe you should as well. But there’s always TheImitation Game.

Serious Beer In A Serious Beer City (Pittsburgh, PA) – The largest beer festival the city has ever seen will be taking place tonight and tomorrow (Feb 20th-21st) at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center when the 2015 Pittsburgh Beerfest comes to town. This two-evening beerganza will feature some 300+ beers from America’s best brewers. Plus there will be live music, great food, and 10,000 like-minded craft beer fans to party with so things will get crazy – we promise. For a complete listing of everybody coming, check out: Pittsburgh Beerfest

TV Time – Hey the Academy Awards are on Sunday so if you’re a glutton for punishment, you can spend four endless hours (that you’ll never get back) watching that vanity-fest. But we suggest that your time might be better spent watching something more artful and exciting – like this season’s return of The Walking Dead.
