The Beer Diviner will launch MVP Lager
Celebration of new beer to take place during Troy Night Out
TROY — The Beer Diviner will release its beer, MVP Lager, as part of Troy Night Out on Friday, Feb. 24.
MVP Lager is named after and honors the Beer Diviner’s mother-in-law, Martha Veverka Parrish (MVP) who will be in attendance. MVP is a long-time journalist, a highly respected New York City art dealer, and a board member of Habitat for Humanity NYC. She is one of the Beer Diviner’s most ardent supporters and the only person to ever have a Beer Diviner beer named in her honor.
The event will begin at 4 p.m. and attendees will receive a free 5 oz. taster, promotional pricing for beer, and can partake of the signature dish of fried chicken from a family recipe taught by MVP to her daughter, the Beer Diviner’s wife.
Long Journey will perform at 7:30 p.m. Amrita Lash and Karl Mullen, “two voices and a wooden guitar,” make up this “fierce folk” band based out of Williamstown, Mass. Long Journey’s visionary sound is influenced by Doc Watson, Shirley Collins and traditional Appalachian songs, wonderfully melding the old folk themes with the new.
Last year, The Beer Diviner was named Food & Wine magazine’s top New York nanobrewery.

"I've found that if you give people what they want, they'll buy...they'll use.I really don't care if you're a transit system, a corner drug store or a restaurant.If you're not in tune with what your customer is desiring or wanting, you're not likely to be all that successful." -Carm Basile, CEO Capital District Transportation Authority

Serving the transportation needs of the Capital Region is a big task, and that's just the beginning of the many important functions CDTA fills in our region.
BlusPlus needs to be expanded, Montgomery County maybe brought into the fold and if ridership warrants, replace the current 905 route with an LRT in the future. And an intermodal hub in Colonie serving Amtrak, CDTA, intercity buses with a people mover between the Harriman campus, UAlbany and the intermodal center.
Cdta you are not even close to giving people what they want. You changed everything to make it easier for CDTA not your riders!
Mayor Sheehan said in her State of the City address to the Hudson-Park neighborhood association last night that 787 has perhaps 30 more years of useful life. Downtown Albany is full of parking garages. This region is very car-dependent. It's time we built a metro. For decades regional population stagnated a little over 800,000, and now it is grown over 1 million. Last year we put in a bid for Amazon headquarters 2. Growth is great, but that proposal was impractical because putting something that large in downtown Albany would work much better if we had a metro. We have RPI and Poly right here, so our metro system could be a laboratory for developing new transit technology. Let's do it. Cost is only an excuse.
We know it's the #firstdayofspring, but we're dreaming of summer 😍
