Saturday November 20 through Monday November 22

#19 FedEx Field
Went to the Penn State - Indiana game at FedEx field. Since it is a pro stadium they had beer on tap. I had a Yuengling black and tan. Only put me back $9. Thankfully I didn't pay for the tickets (and neither did Xande) so Danny boy only got a small amount of my money. Raljon, MD - Saturday.


#20 The Dizz - Grandview
A second location of the Dizz (where I spent my birthday this year). Bizarrely located at the top of a retirement high rise. The elevator up smelled like old people. It really was a Grand View, though. Located on Rolland Ave - Saturday

#21 - Red Brick Station
A pretty ordinary brew pub 'on the Avenue' in White Marsh. Had a pumpkin ale and a IPA, neither were particularly impressive. Watched some football and the end of the Caps-Devil game. Located on Honeygo Boulevard - Monday

#22 - Della Rose's Avenue Tavern
Stopped in for a quick beer at Della Rose's. They have several locations I believe, this one is just a typical suburban bar in an decent shopping area. Located on Honeygo Boulevard - Monday

I passed on the chance to go the the 'Tilted Kilt,' which seems to be a hooters-type place. I am going get a crew together and go back there later in the countdown, I think.

Tuesday November 16 - Thursday November 18

Pictures to be uploaded later

#17 - 9:30 Club
My friend procured tickets to the Grinderman show in DC. Tuesday night, we headed down. Arriving as the opening act was finishing up we headed downstairs to the bar. One pumpkin ale later we went back upstairs and almost immediately the band started playing. Good timing. Located on V Street NW - Tuesday.

#18 - Taco Fiesta
A sometimes lunch spot for me in Harbor East, we stopped by for a Negro Modello on tap and a couple of Sols post run club at the City Sports. We went in to James Joyce but there was no room at the bar so we moved a block over. Located on Exeter Street - Wednesday.

Thursday November 11 - Monday November 15

Friday pictures have been added, the other two will come later.


#12 - Lil' Phil's
Located right next to the Blarney Stone in Fells, this is at one time the place of employment for my friend Charles. Now we only stop in every once in a while. We had a beer and saw the bartender I know, Scott. Located on Broadway - Friday


#13 - Pearl's
This stop was a bit of a disaster. Pearl's used to be Flip's and we went there a couple of times for cheap Boh. It was a real dive then, and I guess it's still a dive now, but we didn't much car for it. There seemed to a crowed watching some old guy do trick pool shots in the back. We just didn't care for the crowed, so we drank our PBRs and left quickly. Located on Aliceanna east of Fells - Friday


#14 - Bad Decisions
I have been following this place on twitter for a while despite never having been there before. We had a quick drink and saw one of my friend ex's. Which, I was reminded that she works there (but wasn't working at that time). We doubled back to Ale Mary's after hitting this place to get food (Ale Mary's is directly across the street). Located on Fleet east of Fells - Friday


#15 - Squires
This is the first stop outside the city of Baltimore. Squires is a pizza place in Dundalk. We went for my friend Karin's birthday (we have done this at least once in the past). I didn't eat, grabbed a Boh and a piece of pie. Although the cannolis looked amazing. Located on Holabird Ave - Saturday


#16 - Oregon Ridge Park Pavilion
When I started, I set the ground rules as places that count would have beer on tap or spirits. So after running the Dustin Bauer Memorial 5k the post-race banquet had a keg so i'm going to count this. (for the record I also say I will count anyone's house that has a physical bar) They had Blue Moon supplied by Looney's so we had a post-race drink. Located in Oregon Ridge Park in Cockeysville - Sunday

I Created a Map

Cause that's what I do. Weekend update will be posted when I collect some pictures.

Wednesday November 10

#11 - Koopers Tavern
Post run club I was hungry and headed to Fells.  I stopped in Koopers, home of the famous Burger Wagon.  I don't know why, but the burgers from the Burger Wagon seem like they are better than the ones from the mothership on Thames Street.  They had a nice cooler full of beer, but I think i'd had about 60 of the 100 in there.

Wednesday November 3 through Tuesday November 9

#7 - Ale Mary's
A nice neighborhood bar on the east side of Fells Point.  Nice beer selection (you can get a Belgian in the appropriate glass) and good food.  Sat outside once with Zuni on a sunny Saturday for lunch.  The spaghetti was on special and it was huge.  Located on Fleet Street--Wednesday

#8 - The Wharf Rat
This used to be a pretty popular destination years ago.  Mostly because we knew someone who worked here, and they had an awesome selection of Oliver microbrews which were on special on Thursday nights.  Hadn't been in a few years and they have a much smaller selection.  But it's still a cool spot and the hush puppies were quite good.  Located on Lancaster and Ann Streets--Friday

#9 - Johnny Rad's
A new hangout that opened in place of a neighborhood bar.  It did seem to have a crew of hipsters that were hanging out.  It was decently busy for a Tuesday night.  I had several canned beers (including a 21st Amendment-Back in Black).  I did not try the pizza, but it looked quite good.  They were not playing the hockey game.  Located on Eastern Ave-Tuesday

#10 - Kisling's Tavern
Just a block down from Johnny Rad's I wandered down to catch the hockey game.  More of a neighborhood bar, seems to be popular with the recreational sport leagues.  I think I stopped in once to get package goods on a Sunday when the loading dock was closed.  Located on Fleet Street-Tuesday.

I need to play catch-up.  A long weekend where I hung out at various friend's houses resulted in a net of one new bar on Friday night.  So far 10 bars in 12 days.  One tenth of the way there folks.

Friday October 29 through Monday November 1

#1 - JA Murphy's
It's no surprise this adventure began at Murphy's. Despite opening less than two years ago it's home base for me. $1 shots during happy hour and some of my favorite bartenders in the city. I've had some interesting nights, sometimes wandering in a half-empty Murphys and winding up spending half the night socializing with random folks. Located on Aliceanna--Friday

---

#2 - Blarney Stone Pub
I was never a huge fan of the Stone, but i've come around. It's all about expectations, I guess. Now I expect to get a drink and just hang out. It's usually the same exact crew there which is nice. It's another 'Irish' pub, but really it's just a dive bar in Fells Point. Located on Broadway--Friday.

---

#3 - Quest
Yes, the colorful decor in the window indicates the kind of establishment this was. I went with a large group because supposedly the drinks were cheap. There was Karaoke and lots of uncomfortable moments, and i'd had enough and I went down the block to the next stop. Located on Fleet Street in Highlandtown--Friday.

---

#4 - Brewer's Hill Pub and Grill
This was a pub where i've been before, just once or twice. It's a nice place, nothing too special in terms of beer selection. I think they only had guinness on tap when we rolled in. I put $5 in the jukebox and played some Dio. The barmaid was plenty friendly, offering us cupcakes. On Eaton Street in Highlandtown/Brewer's Hill--Friday (Saturday technically)

---

#5 - Hummers Bar and Grill
A nice little neighborhood bar. They had an awesome Heavy Seas Pumpkin Ale. It was Saturday before Halloween, so folks were there in costume. There was a Cruella DeVil who I thought looked pretty good. An in between land, not Canton, not Brewer's Hill, not Highlandtown, not Patterson Park, on Foster Ave--Saturday.

---

#6 - Claddagh Pub

Once again going with an 'Irish' pub. Claddagh has good food and was playing the Monday Night Football game. Some friends from the footy team were there. Located on the Square in Canton--Monday.
