Many a poem has been written on a cocktail napkin and many while drinking beer, but now's your chance to write poems on cocktail napkins about beer and win money for your artistry ($1 entry fee per poem; grand prize is $1,000). Various bars will hold qualifying rounds on March 1st–11th, like the one on March 5th at Standard Tap where haikus and limericks about beer submitted on beverage napkins and coasters will be read aloud at 8 PM and judged by applause. Winners move on to the championship round at Johnny Brenda’s on Thursday, March 13th, as part of the Philly Beer Week festivities. For more information, go to www.phillybeergeek.com.
