Two events held during the last week in the village of Linglestown were big hits with local residents.

Linglestown Fire Company’s soup sale last Saturday was a perfect fit for a snowy and blustery day.

And tonight’s tasting event with Linglestown’s very own microbrewery Millbock Brewing Company held at St. Thomas Roasters Coffee House attracted about 60 people.

The event was sponsored by the coffee house and Linglestown Gazette. By the way, it was great getting a chance to meet several Gazette readers at the event.
