2009
Groundhog Day
Hawaiian Shirt Beer Breakfast and
Lucky Cat Beer Prognostication
Chase away
those mid-winter blues!
On
Saturday, 02 February 2002 (02/02/02), we started a new tradition at
The Grey Lodge Pub, our first annual Groundhog\Lucky Cat Day Hawaiian
Shirt Beer Breakfast. Now it's two, two events in one. We start at 7am
with our annual Groundhog Day Hawaiian Shirt Beer Breakfast. At 10am,
we kick off more oddity with Lucky Cat Day, which features
Wissinoming Winnie's Beer Prognostication and other fun stuff.

Ground
Hog Day Hawaiian Shirt Beer Breakfast (call out sick day)
To chase away the winter blues and to celebrate Punxatauny Phil's
annual prognostication, we open at 7am every Groundhog Day, 02
February, for our Groundhog Day Hawaiian Shirt Beer Breakfast
featuring: Punxatauny Phil's weather prognostication on our
50" flatscreen plasma TV.
Prize for best (ugliest?) Hawaiian Shirt,

Free
leis.
A special brunch
menu.
It's still December, we'll have loads more details as we get closer to
February 2nd.
Lucky
Cat Day Seasonal Beer
Prognostication
Like Punxatauny Phil, the Grey Lodge's Wissinoming Winnie is a
prognosticator. Unlike Phil who prognosticates weather, Winnie
prognosticates beer. Every February 2nd, with the help of her Inner
Circle, Winnie determines if there will be 6 more weeks of winter beers
or if the spring seasonals will arrive early. Winnie's Inner Circle is
comprised of her hand picked (paw picked?) menagerie of local beer
folks. 2010 News: We have a case of Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout that we will be cellaring until Groundhog Day 2010.
Beers
On Tap for 2009
- Founders Breakfast Stout
- Russian River Perdition (first time in PA).
- Flying Fish Espresso Porter
- Victory Braumeister Pils
