Gordon Biersch on tap at non-GB locations?

Anyone know where they serve Gordon Biersch Hefeweizen on tap at location in the south bay that are NOT the GB restaurant?

(It's not always easy to get to SJ downtown)

I fell in love with it in the bottle. A couple days ago I finally got to the GB restaurant to try it on tap. OMG! it was like heaven in a glass.

That's my favorite too. I only know of GB in downtown that has it on tap. I don't think anyone else has it.

I'm really upset that GB sells all of their beers in a 6 and a 12 pack, but not Hef. It only comes in a 6 pack. And sometimes it's hard to find.

Hint: Trader Joe's Hef is actually GB Hef. Actually all the TJ brand beer is GB.

Oh... and Trader Joe's Dunkelweizen is crazy awesome.

Sierra Neveda's Kellerweis puts Gordon's to shame. Pick up a bottle and report back, do it. =)

Is it the exact same hefe? The Mission St. Pale Ale at TJ's is Firestone-Walker, but it is not the same recipe as any FW beer.

In this case, I'm pretty sure it is. It sure tastes the same.
