Any of you jabronis going to the Mikkeller Oakland opening today?
I was contemplating stopping in on my way past later, but that was before I knew it was full on Mikkeller. I was hoping to have one last trip before it went fully that way.

Might still stop in if they have one non Mikkeller beer on tap
 
Got a pal over at the Crooked Goat opening tonight in Sebastopol. (Its right by woddfour).
His very helpful review is "pretty good"
Crowlers of everything except the DIPA.

I was at the Barlow (awesome place) over the weekend and Crooked Goat was having a private event, otherwise I would've totally tried them out. Happy to have tried Woodfour for the first time, but one of their sours was pure diacetyl.

As a crotchety life long local I thought Sebatopol was plenty charming for years without making a manufactured nu-rustic shopping neighborhood off to the side of town....but I am totally down with that place that makes fresh icecream with cream, whatever ingredients you want and a blast of nitrogen. The future doesn't always suck I guess.

Woodfour is hit and miss but they are getting better. Hoping that trend continues. (Admittedly its been at least 6 months since I was out there.)

Not good.

Bottle list is about half sold out. 1 bottle pp.
 
**** it, that sounds so bad I might actually be tempted to ask them for a taster of it.

Okay, I am heading over there, just for a taste of that. Blue polo work shirt, be there in about 30 minutes.
****, I might have seen you there lol

I was the Asian dude standing against the wall with sunglasses on his head and holding a bottle of West Ashley (decided to get it b/c never tried before). Also, I should have gone earlier because the last Vig sold out two people in front of me

I saw ya with that bottle, I was carrying the '10 Tilquin and the shot of that horrid raspberry beer.
 
damn that's a nice bottle list. i assume prices are pretty nuts though?
Framboos was most expensive at $61
Fruited Cantillon were in the 40s
Non-fruited Cantillon was mid- to high- 30s I think
West Ashley was $28, Cellarman was $27
Tilquin was around $30

The rest I don't remember
