From the Dallas Observer
You\’ve dreamed for years of taking off work, jetting to Wilmington and spending a few days downing the great beers of Delaware. Well, Flying Saucer Draught Emporium saves you the trouble.
On April 1–yes, April 1, a day when everyone suspects some sort of double-cross–Flying Saucer\’s Montfort location hosts Claus Hagelman of the state\’s Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. He will present a vertical tasting of four labels: 2009 and 2006 Fort, Immort Ale and 120 Minute IPA, along with the 2009 and 2005 Burton Baton–all from Dogfish Head.
The \”Off-Centered Beer Tasting Experience\” (that\’s what they call it, thanks to the brand\’s unusual slogan), takes place April Fool\’s Day at 8 p.m. and costs $35 for UFO Club members and $40 for non-members. There\’s limited space, so reservations are required.
Beats a trip east.
I would disagree. A trip to Rehoboth is well worth it and not just for Dogfish Head.
April 1 is different here. Rather than play silly pranks, or frivolenspielen as they called here, April 1 is a solemn remembrance of the day when the evil Polish and French invaders stole the laughter from the peaceful, joyous german people.
