Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I bet Pizzeria Paradiso feels pretty good, as they’re gearing up to host an event honoring the late, great, oh-so-funky James Brown on what would have been his 79th birthday.  They’re calling it The Night of the Funk, and from the looks of the beer list, you’ll certainly want to head over there and stay on the scene (though I can’t vouch for whether or not it’ll make you feel like a sex machine – that’s a bit personal).

On May 3 at both the Dupont and Georgetown locations, Pizza P will be pouring a hefty list (24 in total) of some of the funkiest brews around.  Additionally, they’ll be serving a up a Funky Green Tomato pizza special for those who want that down home cookin’…on a pizza.

No tickets are reservations are required – beers are priced by the pour.  Check out the draft list and official poster below.

Only one word can really describe this event; however, by now I think you’re probably tired of reading it over and over again.  You know what…screw it.  Funky.
