I love craft beer. There, I said it. This week happens to be American Craft Beer Week (in my house I call it “Friday Night”). Tonight Ladyface Alehouse has Archived Ales on tap. Select Beer Store is being taken over by Stone Brewing. West 4th & Jane is having Sam Adams Brewery Night trying out 4 rare brews of theirs. The Surly Goat is having Firestone Night. Wades Wines is doing Stone Brewing Rare Vertical Tasting (through Sunday- and this place is awesome). City Tavern will be doing 9 selections of Drake’s Brewing. Little Bear will be taken over by Avery Brewing at 6pm. How cool is this? One of these places has to be in your neighborhood. Check it out!

Sorry this week has been lacking in posts, but you’re not forgotten about. Until you can pay my bills, work comes first. Lets get to it!
This afternoon roll into Holmby Hills and join the Holmby Park Lawn Bowling Club for Lazy Lawn Bowling. Click HERE for all the details, timing and tickets. It’s partly a singles event, so if you’re single come on down and meet other single people. If you’re in a relationship- no worries! Come and watch all the uncomfortable people make conversation.
Tonight, Saturday May 11, The Third Man will be opening the Cinespia movie season at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Get there early to get in line and get a good cemetery plot (kidding). Remember to bring comfy blankets and hit up Trader Joe’s on the way.
Or if you’re feeling artsy, check out the opening of Significance Swells at Western Project, 2762 S. La Cienega Blvd from 6-8p.
Sunday, May 12, hit up the Echo Park Art Fair to find last minute creative gifts for mom (it’s Mother’s Day silly!) It’s from noon to 6pm on Sunday (and also on Saturday). Since you’re in the neighborhood, why not start your day by having a Mama’s Day brunch at Mohawk Bend, and then stop by the Fair where you can let mama pick her gift? Just an idea…
