We're counting down the days until Philly Beer Week! Here's what we have planned during our favorite week of the year, and beyond:

 


150th Anniversary Celebration - Beef & Beer Dinner

birthday beer

galaOn Sunday, June 6, we are throwing a massive "Creative Black Tie Beef & Beer Dinner" to celebrate our 150th Anniversary.

For the first time in modern history, we'll close the establishment & Drury Street for a 2-story, inside/outside, ticketed gala. Meet local brewers & savor their beer at our only Philly Beer Week event. Tickets include Premium Open Bar (29 Craft Beers, Domestic & Imported Draft Beers, Wine & Cocktails), Meet the Brewers (Ithaca, Victory, Stoudts & more), Dinner Buffet (Carved Beef, Irish Potato Bar, McGillin's Favorites buffet & Salad Station), Entertainment (Bag Piper, DJ, live Irish music by Patsy from Boston, pianist outside) & Prizes for the most Creative "Black Tie" Dressers.

By the way, what does Creative "Black Tie" mean? It could be a tux t-shirt, the jeans & tee you usually wear to party at McGillin's, your Grandfather's baby blue tux or what you wore to prom. We don't care - just come dressed for fun!

Tickets are $45. We held a few for procrastinators. Get 'em before they're totally sold out - call us 215/735-5562.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Welcoming Center for New Pennsylvanians, which works to integrate immigrants (like the McGillin family) into the social, economic & cultural fiber of the city.

Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime event!
