Lord Chesterfield Society
Operating clandestinely for over two centuries, The Chesterfield Society is a secret order of gentlemen and gentlewomen of exceptional taste. Many thought the order to be extinct; however, Chesterfield Society members are everywhere, in all walks of life. You can identify them by their sharp wit, excellent taste and outstanding choice in ale.
Philly Beer Week (PBW)
PBW is an annual celebration of beer culture that includes tastings in cozy neighborhood taprooms of locally crafted brews, educational offerings such as guided tastings and lectures and prix-fixe beer-pairing dinners across the region. The largest event of its kind in the nation, it has spawned a host of similar events across the country and remains, in its third year, the premier beer festival in America, set in “America’s Best Beer-Drinking City.” Over 180 bars, restaurants and breweries will host more than 950 events during Philly Beer Week 2010.

About this photo:
The Hammer of Glory (HOG) was used to kick off the opening of Philly Beer Week (PBW). The HOG is PBW’s official keg mallet. In 2009, the HOG was used in an over-the-top style, transported like an Olympic torch from The Grey Lodge Pub in the Northeast to Independence Visitor’s Center via just about every conceivable means – except automobile.
