Wow,,,one of the best street parties I have ever attended. Like a combo between Bourbon Street, Haight Ashbury, and Queens Day in Amsterdam. Fun two days of non-stop music and great beer. Within walking distance of the Toronado Pub.

Hi 420
Did the pigtailed checkered dressed chick barmaid ever warm up to you ?
I remember she said to me .. " you know, when I saw you, I thought you were gonna be one of those pain in the ass tourists "
Then you ordered the best thing on the chalkboard ( Alesmith Barrel Aged Stout 2006 ), and I knew we were gonna get along...
I remember you thought she was a bit cranky....
On tonight's beer list @ City Beer ( where I told you to go the other day )

HI Smuler,
I spent my last evening at the Toronado and enjoyed their Firestone Double IPA and offcourse,,a few Pliny's. I had some serious discussions with the locals about Pliny,,,the brewer,,Big Daddy from Torondado,, way too funny. Also ended up chowing down on two sausages from next door,,,Spicy Lamb and Duck Sausage. The Aged Barrel Stout on tap was awesome as well. Met some interesting growers from Mendicino and Humbolt,,,they are anxious to meet HWB as well.
Also had the pleasure of visiting Russian River Brew Pub in Santa Rosa,,tried the flight 14 Russian River Brew samples for $15,,still ended up drinking two Pliny's and driving back on the 101 to San Francisco. Not recommended to drive back:-)
Thanks again for introducing me to the finest beer in CA. The locals laugh and tell me that they can only drink it on fridays,,so they can recover over the weekend.
Cheers,,,back in Phoenix with 110 degree temps,,off to Chicago next week,,,Old Style here I come.

Hey 420
My pleasure regarding the Pliny
My only trip to the brewpub was a big disappointment, as they really had nothing special on tap that day
Plus, I had a couple of mid twenties ladies bitching and moaning in the car...
" I thought we were going wine tasting / I don't like beer ..... "
I hope this is what you were drinking @ Toronado:
