Monk's Cafe prepares 'religious' lineup of beers for Pope Francis
Monk’s Cafe announced Pope-Pourri, a “sacred and profane” array of 24 religiously-inspired craft beers to be featured during the papal visit.
An impressive and rare lineup of brews on draft will be ready to be poured for Pope Francis. Monk’s Cafe announced Pope-Pourri, a “sacred and profane” array of 24 religiously-inspired craft beers to be featured during the papal visit.
"I saw the Pope in 1979 in Phoenix Park, Dublin," said Fergus "Fergie" Carey, co-owner of Monk’s Cafe. "My entire family and a million other people walked miles to see him. If this visit is anything like that one, they'll be plenty of thirsty folks in need of a proper drink during Francis Fest."
This “Pope-Pourri” lineup starts pouring Saturday, Sept. 26 at 11:30 a.m. The hosts announced there’s only one keg of each of these rarities and people are advised “early arrival improves your chances of "mass consumption!.”
“Monk’s Café is committed to serving our guests just as the Pope is dedicated to serving humankind," said Tom Peters, co-owner and self-proclaimed resident beer geek. "We will stay open to serve our guests during the Vatican Vacationer’s visit to Philadelphia. So flock in for a respite, and just maybe the Pope will drop in for a pint of Devotion.”
