ATTENTION SIERRA NEVADA DRINKERS
I am going to need tons of empty (although you can also donate full ones) Sierra Nevada bottles for home brew christmas 6-packs for 8 to 10 people (48-60 bottles) so if anyone in the South Bay wants to help be out and donate empty bottles just stick them in a bag and I'll come by and pick them up. The closer to Sunnyvale the better.

What's amazing about Singha is not so much the taste but the alcohol content. I found some Kellerweis at a store here in Reno last night and introduced my brother and fam to it. Found out there's a bar/pub here in town dedicated to Sierra! Gonna track it down tonight.

I took the Sam Adams tour while I was in Boston last month. There`s free sampling of various beers there, so if you`re in Boston that`s got to be on your list.

I saw the Rogue Dead Guy Ale at the local *** Hill Foods. I also discovered that there is a BevMo mere miles from me 
Needless to say, I'll be trying some Rogue soon (even though I'm trying to do my part to stimulate the CA economy by buying tons of Stone and Sierra Nevada).
Oh, and I guess the diet is off Rob?

Yeah I have had some other Rogue (dont remember which ones though) that my friend gave me one night. I haven't had a bad one yet.
The diet is still semi-on... haha I've been working out but I love beer and good wine... I can't help it.

Couldn't resist, had to check it out for myself...
I had never heard of Sierra's Blonde, Pilsner, Pale Bock, or the brown Saison. Mmmm... Beeeeeeer..
Note all the dogs there - pretty sweet. The whole Riverwalk area was really nice I have to admit.
My pale ale and the lilikoi wheat came out nice, but I am sad to say I have made my first beer I do not like - the Kölsch. Something is not right with it - tastes like it has a high tannin level, is darker than it should be, and didn't seem to carbonate well. The ale is soooooo good though, which is odd, since I used the same amount og hops as last time when it seemed too hoppy (didn't strain it into the fermenter). It's so good, I am really happy with it. The wheat, meh, but my wife likes it and that is what it was for.
