SF Beer week (http://www.sfbeerweek.org/ (http://www.sfbeerweek.org/)) just started, anyone have plans for attending any of the events? I am probably going to the Double IPA event in Hayward today.
21st Amendment on Thursday night, and Barleywine on Saturday (or Sunday). Can't wait.
Shit, I wish I would have seen this earlier I would have had a much more intoxicated weekend.
Drakes at the Englander sounds goooood.
The Double IPA festival was heaven on earth....70 degrees, sunny, and over 50 double IPAs on tap! Also made it to the tapping of the Lagunitas Quad (280 IBUs!) at the Rose and Crown yesterday.
12% Imports night at The Trappist in Oakland was fun. My favorite was the sampler flight of Swedish beer (I didn't even know Sweden liked beer, I figured they were vodka swilling folk). If you ever see Perfect Idjit! by Dugges Bryggeri, that is effing tasty whiskey barrel-aged imperial stout. The regular Idjit! was delicious too.

Got a 6-pack of the IPA Sunday, first time I've seen it bottled.

Are they going to start selling bottles? I haven't found it anywhere besides on-tap at Englander.

Damn the closest BevMo is Jack London... oh well the price you pay to be a drunkard.
If you are up for some Recon on finding a local supplier I'm OK with assisting. Planning meeting should be held at Buffalo Bills; Taz me!
