"Brewmasters" TV Parties

I'm certain that a lot of craft-beer places will be organizing viewing parties of some sort to lead up to the Sunday night premiere of The Discovery Channel's new series about Sam Calagione and Dogfish Head Brewing, Brewmasters.  The first notice to hit my mailbox is one for Max's Taphouse, upstairs in the Mobtown Lounge beginning at 8 PM (show time is 10 PM).  Dogfish beers on draft and in bottles, naturally.

More on the show here, including schedules (the premiere also airs Thanksgiving night at 10 PM).

Anyone else hosting "Brewmasters" parties?

I got the email from Casey, and had to admit it made me laugh. The thought had never even crossed my mind to watch the premier of this at a pub or bar (all the more so, as I'm NEVER out at a bar at 10:00 on a "school night"), but I thought it a pretty clever idea on Casey's part.

I'm guessing 10:00 on a Sunday is typically a VERY slow time at Max's, so anything that will get a few more butts in the seats at the hour is a very smart move.

Best of luck to Max's!

I will concede similar thoughts on my own part. I wonder what the work absentee rate is going to be around, say, the Rehoboth Beach and Milton, Delaware areas on Monday the 22nd......

Are there any West Coast football games that have to be factored into the equation? I've seen football fans on weekends outnumber those for any beer event scheduled for a weekend--which may explain why Max's schedules a football-related beer event during the final day of Baltimore Beer Week, and other places don't even bother with a beer event on the Sundays of BBW......

Well, it's a Sunday, so we're talking about NFL games. There'll be the 8:20 game, which is between the NYG and the Eagles. Probably be some folks in attendance just for that. Maybe not a lot, but some I would think...
