Perhaps one of the stranger events we have ever heard of...Grey Lodge Pub is opening at 7am on February 2nd in time to watch Phil poke his head out at 7:20am.  Featured beers include Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout, PBC's Joe Porter, and more!  Prizes will be awarded for best and worst hawaiian shirts and the winner of a hula hooping competition.  Of course there will be great beer to go around!

Event Lineup:

7:00am: Punxatowney Phil & Breakfeast Stouts

Featured Beers: Founder's Breakfast Stout (Draft), Founder's KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) (Draft), Philadelphia Joe Porter (Draft).

8:00am: Sierra Nevada Hawaiian Shirt Contest

Wear your best (worst) Hawaiian shirt, Sierra Nevada will have prizes for the best (worst) ones!

9:00am: Troegs Something or Other

Troeg's Nugget Nectar will be on handpump, event TBA!

10:00am: Hula Hoop Contest

Prizes awarded for the best and most enthusiastic hoopers! Featured beers: TBA

11:00am: Event & Beers TBA

Noon: Lucky Cat Day Seasonal Beer Prognostication

Like Punxsutawney Phil, the Grey Lodge's Wissinoming Winnie is a prognosticator. Unlike Phil who prognosticates weather, Winnie prognosticates beer. 

Every February 2nd, with the help of her Inner Circle, Winnie determines if there will be 6 more weeks of winter beers or if the spring seasonals will arrive early. Winnie's Inner Circle is comprised of her hand picked (paw picked?) menagerie of local beer folks.
