Heard on the Radio: McGillis' Olde Ale House Turns 150

McGillin’s Olde Ale House threw open its doors the year Lincoln was elected president. That’s shortly after the Liberty Bell cracked and long before ground was broken for Philadelphia City Hall. The beer taps have been flowing since 1860 - making it the oldest continuously operating tavern in Philadelphia. It has outlasted Strawbridge’s, the Civil War and even Prohibition.

We introduced the gang at Left Jab to Christopher Mullins, Jr, a third generation of the second family to run the place. He talks with Mark Walsh and Dave Zirin about McGillis' history and how they are celebrating their 150th birthday.
