This Saturday, beer drinkers from across the area will gather to drink some of the finest beer\u00a0known to man.<\/p>\n

No, not Dark Lord. What did you think we meant?<\/p>\n

\"positivepilsnerposterlarge\"<\/a>Date<\/strong>: Saturday, April 26
\nTime<\/strong>: Officially like, 4 pm but really kinda whenever
\nWhere<\/strong>: Norse Bar, 6334\u00a0N. Clark
\nWhy<\/strong>: Just because it seems like the thing to do on a Saturday.
\nWhat<\/strong>: Pilsners from 5Rabbit, Metropolitan,\u00a0Stiegl, Firestone, Victory, Left Hand and more
\nFacebook Event Link:<\/strong> Glad you asked! It’s
here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When the world zigs, we like to zag. So when I passed on Dark Lord Day tickets this year, I started thinking: what kind of event would I want to hang out at on a nice springtime afternoon?<\/p>\n

Do I want to drink a bunch of heavy\u00a0Russian Imperial sludgebeer\u00a0and pay highly for the privilege? Do I want to queue up for another beer that, in the past, we’ve been less than impressed<\/a> with? Or do I want to hang out in a quality neighborhood bar and quaff some crisp, clean, light bodied works of brewery art, and be able to have more than a few of them?<\/p>\n

Say, for example, a bunch of pilsners and lagers?<\/p>\n

Look, nothing against the whirlwind of beer magic that Three Floyd’s has created – I come here not to shit on Dark Lord Day but to praise it. Thousands if people have a great time at it every year. It just ain’t for us. So I asked the fine folks at Norse Bar to help me do something about it.<\/p>\n

Thus was born the Pretty Positive & Pleasant Pilsner Party.<\/p>\n

\"norse\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Norse Bar has\u00a0kindly allowed us to hijack their draft lines and pack them with pilsners. Nice of them, right?<\/p>\n

On Saturday afternoon, please join us for a collection of some damn fine beers\u00a0(pilsners, obvs, and maybe even a lager or two: we’re not married to the style just for alliterative purposes) from Chicago, the nation and beyond. Because what kind of Pilsner fest would we be if we didn’t have a Stiegl Pils or a Lagunitas Pils on tap? No pilsner fest at all, that’s what.<\/p>\n

Scheduled to Appear:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • 5 Rabbit Super Pils<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Stiegl Pils<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Victory Prima Pils<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Left Hand Polestar<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Metro Flywheel<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Lagunitas Pils<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Firestone Walker Pivo Pils<\/span><\/li>\n
  • LATE ADDITION: Half Acre Pony Pilsner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    No lines. No tickets. No sessions. No live metal bands. No massive ABVs. No hanging out in parking lots. Just some really good crisp clean beers for you to purchase and enjoy.<\/p>\n

    Join us, won’t you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
