When we asked McCoy's Public House bar manager Randyl Danner to predict which beer would go fastest at this year's
Strong Ale Festival, she listed two brews: Deschutes Brewery's Chasin' Freshies (an IPA made from an heirloom strain of hops from Willamette Valley) and Perennial Artisan Ales' Fantastic Voyage (a milk stout brewed with coconut). Try these beers plus selections from more than 30 breweries from 1 to 5 p.m. today on Pennsylvania Avenue between Westport Road and 40th Street. Tickets cost $30 in advance and $35 at the door.
