I once again want to thank Dan Kopman from Schlafly for donating the two tickets to the VIP only event. Everyone make sure to head out to the Stout and Oyster Festival this weekend and try to eat all 25,000 oysters.

The Stable:  Opening at 7AM tomorrow and will be serving up breakfast of eggs, sausage, bacon, toast, corned beef hash.  A great way to start the morning.  It’s important to lay down a base.

International Tap House:  Open at 1pm; $3 Guinness, Smithwicks, Harp and Boulevard Irish Ale.  Live Music starts at 8pm.

Growlers Pub:  Both locations will be offering an all you can eat breakfast buffet from 6am to 10am that includes your choice of coffee, juice or a pint of Harp, Smethwicks, or Guinness.  The from 11am to close they’ll be offering a Corn Beef and Cabbage dinner.  Live music as well.

The Royale: Offering up a selection of  stouts, ales, whiskeys, Guinness beef stew, Bangers and Mash (meat or vegetarian) and more starting at 11:30AM.  Then from  4pm-6pm there will be live Irish music from the Gannon Junior Crew Duo.  John Gassel will provide Irish and Irish inspired music from 9pm- close. There will also be some literature readings throughout the day and other surprises as well.

Pat’s Bar and Grill: Tapping a Cask of Schlafly APA at 10 am.

If there are other locations that want their events listed, just add them to the comments section and I’ll add them throughout the day.

What we’ve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year, to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish. Make your taste buds squeal with delight.

Now, where will you be able to find this wonderful beer?  Well, it’s important to note that while the following list has already secured their allocation for KBS, they may not yet have it.  Make sure to call each location before heading out.
