Beer

[epicbeergirl]

had a few pints at Anaheim Brewery when i was in town last weekend.

still good. dig that place.

that whole area is coming along nicely.

There's going to be a beer event in Downtown Anaheim in Sept!

[epicbeergirl]

RuinTen is available at Total Wines here in Tustin for $7. Just picked one up. Older Viscosity was available a few weeks ago. May still be. I picked up 3.

 

Let me know if you make it to lost abbey and can grab any of the barrel aged Santa's little helper for me. I'd be willing to pay or I have an extra Deschutes XXV I would trade.

 

Also Societe brewing is having their one year anniversary bash on Saturday. I'm going to Gaffigan in Anaheim that night so I can't make any of that stuff.

Societe's anniversary is on Sunday too...love their beer!

Awesome that they are bottling those. I wouldnt mind getting my hands on one. 

 

Aaron, doing an Alpine run on the 20th. 

 

 

I'm grabbing around 6 bottles. It might even see distribution, they usually make a bunch. I find 2012 & 2011 Barrel Santa's on the shelf from time to time at bottle shops. El Cerrito even had some.

 

Any Alpine special release that weekend or just a re-stock trip?

Is this the 5k too? I forgot to look into that

[St1ck]

I am sure you don't.

 

 

 

They dropped the bottle limit down to 3. The liquor stores usually carry at least 2 of the big 3. The liquor store closest to the freeway typically has no limit.

Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest is amazing!  I'd def go if you haven't been.  Stone Brewing's Anniversary is another really good one.

Been to both and yes they both are great and not the ordinary fest.

I don't know what any of this means

I met epicbeergirl when I was drunk. I remember that though.

I know they did which does kind of suck but like you said, just means we all hit up the local liquor stores.

Yes!  http://ocfestofales.bksites.net/

 I'm helping out with it again this year.  Promo code for $10 off is good until the 11th.  4thofJuly is the code.  : )

Good ol Kilarneys in Riverside. I have a nice story that coincides with me supposedly not allowed in there anymore.

Not a fan of Goose Island. Had it a long time ago from a dude that owned a hot dog joint from Chicago. Makes sense why I see it everywhere now since Anheuser Busch bought them.

Def not the ordinary fest!  I was surprised they made this year's #FWIBF even better then last year.

Hahahaha that's too bad, they always have really good beer on tap!  That's where I've had Pliny the Younger past two yrs w/out a line.

You were drunk?

: )

I was jealous cause I was sober.  Hahaha

Hermosa does an iron man event that just passed. i watched and laughed but did not partake. Run a mile, paddle a mile and then down a six pack. Good times.

Besides being a bit hot, yes it was.

Just a relaxing day. Nothing special as of yet. probably hit up Societe etc as well.

It's been a year or two and I'm sure no one remembers me, I think I've even been there since. Don't really remember their tap selection. Good to know though.

They've probably switched people so they wouldn't remember you.  They always have good tap and bottle selection.  The owner is a huge craft beer fan, which helps.

LOL just a bit hot.  At least this year they had the huge fans, which helped.

Likely. I laughed walking out as some bouncer following me out giving me a kicked out schpiel while yelling to other bouncer, "Remember his face!" as everyone is staring at the back of my head as I am already walking away.

How are the prices there?

Hahahaha so you were there at night?  Completely different crowd during the day.  The prices are good!  They host events too which is cool

They did. I think misters full of beer are really the way to go though.
