It's beer ... for breakfast

There's another Beer Breakfast at The Royal Mile Pub.

On Sunday, 24 August at 10am, this Wheaton, Md. pub continues a tradition first begun in the early aughts at the now-closed Sean Bolan's Pub of Baltimore, Md. It's a two-hour meal, served in the morning, of hearty breakfast fare prepared with beer and served with appropriate beer.

Expected to be in attendance is Steve Frank, a beer writer (1/2 of the Brews Brothers) who, after enjoying a beer breakfast at the the Portland, Or. Horse Brass Pub several years ago, was inspired to portage the concept east.
