5/21: All-American Barbeque at Varga Bar

5/21: All-American Barbeque at Varga Bar

Varga Bar will be hosting an All-American Barbeque on May 21st featuring Dogfish Head as part of American Craft Beer Week. Because May 21st is Armed Forces Day, Varga Bar will be donating 25% of all the proceeds that are made that day to the USO.

Expect an amazing tap takeover with some limited-run beers from Dogfish Head. You may recognize some rare brews on deck:

  • World Wide Stout **
  • Bitches Brew **
  • Hellhound On My Ale
  • Burton Baton
  • Midas Touch
  • Paolo Santo Marron **
  • 60 MInute IPA
  • 90 Minute IPA
  • Indian Brown Ale

**indicates a Drink Philly Staff Pick

The bar manager informed me that they'll be setting up grills all along the sidewalk with classic "barbeque fare." The hot dogs and burgers we've come to know and love at Varga will be grilled outside, and if all goes well, the sun will be shining down on us.

Note that the Varga Calendars will be sold as well, featuring photographs of models taken in the style of Vargas, the artist the bar is named for. A portion of calendar proceeds will also go to the USO.

It'll be a pay-as-you-go experience from 11am to 5pm. Stick around after that, though - American Craft Beer Week specials will still be rolling from 5pm-7pm.
