Hi, thanks for the warm welcome! Hope you don't mind a newbie question. Does Corona indeed pwn?hey new guyAlmost stopped in there yesterday...![]()
I have one, my first one, waiting in the wings.Bourbon County Coffeestill awesome
The Seirras was a flight of 4oz-ers. The others were either full pints or half pints. The 14th anny last night was a bottle I split with two friends for $30. Pints and half pints have ranged from $3.50-$6And the Ballast Point tasting room stuff were tasters, as was the Bruery night I barely remember.How much did this all cost? I'm assuming you're drinking full pints and not just tasters, right?
Still awesome, and a lot more cost effective...The Seirras was a flight of 4oz-ers. The others were either full pints or half pints.

furley's head just essploded'08 SpeedwayHummulus GoldFirestone 14th annyFirestone Velvet Merlin CASKFirestone ParabolaFirestone Double JackFirestone rep comp'd us on my last three there.Looking back, looks like I missed out telling you guys about Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Monday: Rare day at Ballast Point tasting room. '07 Sour Wench, Bourbon Barrel Aged Piper Down, Brandy aged something, bourbon aged something, some other things..... Then at Toronado: Sculpin on NITRO, '09 Victory at Sea on NITRO, something really good, then two more '09 nitro vics. Those were amazing. Tuesday: Lunch at Coronado Brewing Co. Bourbon Barrel Aged Brown, Hoppy Wheat, Barrel Aged Stout, Hoppy Wheat (best "wheat" I've ever had. really hoppy, really smooth). :Sidebar: starting talking to the guys next to us. One was the head brewer at Anchor. I mentioned I always wanted to take the tour tour but could never get in and that I was going to San Fran next week; he put me on the list for Wed. (I also plan on going up to Russian River on the trip).\After that went to the park to get warmed up for the next day, then went to Rare Sierra Night. Had 6 Sierra beers. Only heard of one of them before. Great stuff. Then I had some leftover Forestone from the night before: 14th anny, double jack, lost track....Wed.....: OMG. Woke up at 7:30 to get to the beer week disc golf tourny. They fed us, we played for a couple hours, they fed us again, then we drank free Green Flash for 3 hours. The bar's goal was 7 casks in in 7 hours. I didn't make it that long. I did get to tap a cask myself though. Probably the highlight of my week. Had a Grand Mantis, Black Freak, Cask Pumpkin ( I do not like pumpkins, but this one was awesome), Cask Saison, Pallet Wrecker, who knows what else..... Then went to a Bruery tasting where I apparently had 9 different Bruery beers highlighted by Black Tuesday, but hardly remember beingthere at all. Thursday: slept in, struggled through some work, took the Ballast point Home Brew class, an 07 Sour Wench, went to bed.Today: See start of post....

Passed by it tonight. Had the Yellow Snow IPA last night and thought it was great but I'm usually underwhelmed with Rogue beers.Rogue Santa's Private Reserve Ale...and it's fantastic.
