Ah, Valentine's Day: refuge of the uninspired lover and bane of the singleton's year. Fear not! We present our annual offbeat V-day guide, guaranteed to add some flair to the red-heart holiday (whose idea was it to put a celebration of love and relationships smack in the middle of the great gray beast February anyway, we ask you?).

In this corner, with some of our favorite seasonal beers, Stoudt's! And in this corner, the hometown champ from Philly, Yards! Never thought you'd see beer competing in a wrestling-inspired match, didja? The Royal Stumble's come through for you, my friend: from 1 to 5 pm on Saturday, July 9, brewers from Stoudt's, Yards, Sly Fox, Flying Fish, Independence, Dogfish Head, and more meet at Nodding Head for an all-out bottle. The brewery whose keg is kicked first wins a championship belt. We know what you're thinking - $30 to kick a keg? Didn't I do that in college for free? Trust Phillyist: these are some of the tastiest local beers around, and they put Natty Light to shame. Bonus: according to Beeradvocate.com, this year's Stumble theme is superheroes. The best outfit wins a prize, so break out the blue tights. On second thought, something with an adjustable waistband might be better. Royal Stumble at Nodding Head (1516 Sansom)
