If you’re a beer drinker, Lehigh Valley Beer Week is a spring event you probably don’t want to miss.
This year’s Beer Week will be held from April 29 to May 6, and in preparation for it members of the Lehigh Valley Brewers Guild gathered at Hellertown’s Lost Tavern Brewing Tuesday to brew its official beer, Guildy Pleasure.
And due to popular demand, this year the guild is actually brewing two different versions of Guildy Pleasure at two member breweries.
According to a Lehigh Valley Beer Week news release, “’Guildy Pleasure’ is…brewed each year as a collaboration between over 20 breweries (Lehigh Valley Brewers Guild) and Lehigh Valley Beer Week in order to raise funds for each non-profit.”
Guildy Pleasure will be available during Lehigh Valley Beer Week at dozens of participating area restaurants and bars, including most of the following establishments: 3rd & Ferry Fish Market, Birthright Brewing Co., Blended by Bru Daddy’s, Bonn Place Brewing, Boser Geist Brewing Co., Bru Daddy’s Brewing.
