From Monday, April 9 to Sunday, April 15, Brewer Mike Rutkowski and Chef Anthony Young of Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant will host a week-long Home Opener Hot Dog and Beer Party, featuring a menu of Phillies-inspired hot dogs and beers.
Guests are encouraged to don Phils’ gear and root, root, root for the home team over beers and hot dogs named after players on the starting lineup. The season gets underway with a 1:05 p.m. opener on April 9 at Citizen’s Bank Park.
The “Starting Lineup” beer menu will include: Phil’s Pils; Flyin’ Hawaiian Pineapple Saison; Rye ‘n’ Howard Rye IPA; Hoppy Halladay Double Red Ale; Blanton Brown Ale; Charlie Man-u-Ale; Polanco’s Porter; and May ‘Berry’ Wheat. Beers will be available on draught on a pay-as-you-go basis until they are consumed by rabid Phillies fans.
Themed hot dogs will include: The Chili Chooooooch Dog, The Flyin’ Hawaiian Dog, The J-Roll Dog, The Jim Thominator, The Antonio Bastar-Dog, Harry the K-Dog, and Hunter’s “Let’s Go Eat” Dog. Each item is unique and contains gourmet ingredients that take it beyond hot dog status. (Pictured: The Antonio Bastar-Dog on left, The J-Roll Dog and The Flyin’ Hawaiian Dog on right)
