Mark your calendars to celebrate the most auspicious of days eighteen years ago on a cold winter’s evening in Fishtown when four runners (Mike & Samantha Xander, Larry Kelsall & David April) left 2346 E. Susquehanna Ave on a run that ended at The Druid's Keep. In a moment of good cheer, they ordered several bottles of Chimay, and David wished all a Merry Christmas and offered a toast, “To The Professor!”. Thus began the Fishtown Beer Runners and a tradition of responsible running and drinking in the interest of science. In honor of this special occasion, we will return to Druid's Keep to celebrate.Make sure to bring your ID!
