There are many ideal times for beer drinking — a lazy Sunday afternoon at the beach, a baseball game, or immediately after a hard day’s work. This week, there’s a four-hour chunk of Saturday evening made for guzzling like a zealous Viking: From 6 to 10 p.m., you won’t want to be anywhere other than the Microbrew Block Party, taking place on the corner of Miracle Mile and Ponce de Leon Boulevard in Coral Gables.

The bash is being sponsored by Houston’s and supports The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis. Fifty bucks gets you a plateful of gourmet grub, music by the ever-rockin’ Live Bait, and more microbrew beer than the entire aisle at Whole Foods.
