What's been going in Richmond for the past (2) week - sorry missed last week so it's a bigger roundup!

Stone news, Mekong anniversary, lots of other beer news (Richmond we may have a drinking problem) and some holidays stuff.

We can start drinking LOCALLY brewed Stone beer in April. Richmond.com tells us all about it.
The RTD has a Tacky Light Guide for us. One week remains for it to still be relevant.
One of the reasons Richmond's beer scene is so strong is Mekong - celebrating 20 years in RVA, they have been name the Great American Beer Bar and received countless other recognitions. So happy belated birthday Mekong! Richmond.com relives the last 20 years.
Richmond Magazine named the Richmonder of the Year and it's uh not a person at all. It's cycling. So yea.
BizSense tells us all about another brewery headed to Scott's Addition, making a brewery crawl that much easier!
Jonathan Spiers of BizSense shares some non beer news - just in time for the holidays, local realtors are giving away (aka you can download) a Richmond Holiday Poster.
USA Today took a bunch of Yelp reviews and rounded up the top 20 musuems in the U.S. and of course the VMFA made the top 20!
Along with Quirk, another rooftop bar is set to open on Broad Street. Could it be, people have finally caught on to the fact that drinking on a roof is a million times cooler than drinking on street level. Style Weekly tells us more.
Boulevard, Burger and Brew is slated to open in January. Richmond Magazine has your first look.
And yet another new brewery coming to Goochland! Check out BizSense's article on the new Kindred Spirits brewery.
Last, but not least, BISCUITS! Savory, breakfast delights coming to my neighborhood - The Fan. I'm excited! Read Style Weekly's article for more info.
