Pikes Pick: Pilgrims and a feast

Wayfarers, get crawlin’: The Feast of St. Arnold’s annual Pilgrimage of Pints is officially underway, with a chance to earn perks and discounted entry to the June 13 beer festival for those who embark on a self-paced pub crawl of its local craft beverage partners. Go to feastofsaintarnold.com to download a “cartogram” and learn more about Colorado Springs’ family-friendly brew fest, a fundraiser for nonprofit Westside CARES held on the grounds of Chapel of Our Saviour Episcopal Church. In the words of St. Arnold of Metz, patron saint of brewers and FOSA festival mascot: “Don’t drink the water. Drink the beer.” (For the record: You should also absolutely drink the water. This is an outdoor summer beer festival in Colorado!) — Stephanie Earls, The Gazette
