Sounds great...thanks man!

And yeah, you guys weren't kidding about reservations at those two places filling up quickly. I booked both the first day possible on OpenTable around 6am EST, and even then there were limited time slots.

There was an article in the SFGate about reservation bots. SMH

We'll be in SF the 14th-17th before heading to Napa.

Depending on how long/when you'll be up there, shoot Nile at Mad Fritz an e-mail and see if they can host you for a visit. Amazing beers, terrific hospitality.

Still had it on last night. Was delicious.

Not at Trappist anymore, but Beer Rev has it.

Not sure if anybody is interested, but worth a shot.

I have an extra ticket to tonights Monday Night RAW for sale, in Oakland. It's a lower level seat, good row, and $60. A group of 3 of us will be there tailgating drinking some good beers before if anybody wants to go. Let me know, Cheers.

Toronado is your best bet for Pliny. I rarely see sours around anymore though

Plenty of Temptation and Consecration up here in Bend.


Nobody is surprised their distribution strategy is terrible.

There's a wine shop in the Castro that had Pliny hanging out in a fridge. It's up a bit on Castro, can't remember the name, think it was "Swirl"

That place had 750ml Consecration Batch 1 only a couple years ago sitting around for like $20.

Yeah that place is super under the radar and a real old RR account.

Ah, see it now. Damn I have a buddy heading up the 101 on saturday but they are closed? So strange to be closed on Saturday/Sunday for a brewery.

Salinas location is but Monterey is open.

"Hi Nelson"on tap at Temescal.

 

[CommanderofAwesome]

Bet that beer skunked real quick in direct sun! Might as well show a car going through a crusher, or high end fashion going through a tree shredder.

WTB: Contains No Juice cans


I have an absurd amount of IPA. Monkish (LA Hat, Gone Glorious, My First Canning Line) and multiple Prohibition Pig crowlers. I am going to open a bunch at Caps & Taps either tomorrow or Thursday--have to figure out if I have an after work function first. Show up...or don't. Whatever.
