Not only is Vinnie (Russian River) a good guy, he brews some great beers. Glad to see his success finally come.

Starting the day right!

[Endo Verendo]

My current favorite is Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA.


It's not officially available in CA but has anyone seen it anywhere?

Delirium is good. Delirium Noel is even better. Can't wait for Winter.

Check Walnut Liquorette in Walnut. I know they have lots of DFH and usually have the 90 Minute. Call ahead and ask for Joe, he's the beer guy. He'll put some aside for you if he knows you are on your way. Joe is good people, tell him Sam sent you.

EDIT: Crap, I just saw you are in Studio City. Unless you are already out here for something else, it would be a drive out here for you to hit Walnut Liquorette. If you see me RSVP to a ride you are going to, let me know and I can pick some 90 Minute up for you.

in my neighbors fridge and a beer club meeting.....a very unusual beer!

Good beers listed here. I just had to do inventory of mine last week since the beer fridge had to go (still looking for new one, so no worries).

Perhaps a Pizza Port meeting? or we all meet at the Stone 11th Anniversary party....? thoughts......lots of stone drinkers here! yeah...Stone!

Indeed.

Come ride Chino Hills State Park some time. The trail head is 50 yards from my house. We can ride and then have some brews in the back yard. I've been known to keep a few beers around...



I am going to try to make it to Fully this Thursday with the left overs from yesterday. Not sure if I will be able to ride, but I can hang out! My ribs are in bad shape.

I heard some talk yesterday of riding San Clemente singletracks and then drinking & eating at Pizza Port San Clemente. That plan works for me.

A 45 minute drive for 90 Minute doesn't sound so bad. I have a couple peeps who'd want a 4 pack or too as well.

I have 3 bottles left in my fridge. I might take you up on the rsvp offer anyway once my road rash heals.

I'm in.

I live in a beer desert. Must travel. (ok, I'm live in between Fathers Office/Library Alehouse and Lucky Baldwins, and have a great beer selection a block away at Vendome, but that's about it around here.)

[CPATCRASH]

There's a Pizza Port in San Clemente??? Sh*t!!! I'm all over it. And on top of it I have never ridden there either.

[guero]

Rogue Hazlenut Brown wets my whistle quite nicely.

[BrewMaster]

Ooo, Rogue, how did I forget about them?!

I love their Brutal Bitter and Chipotle Ale. The Chipotle Ale is made with real smoked peppers, so it tastes really smokey and rich. Pairs perfectly with BBQ.

[Dino Brown]

Anything Sam Smith... Samuel Adams Summer Ale... Fat Tire... Stone... And my personal favorite.....

YUP, It's on El Camino Real, take Avenida Palizada exit. and the San Clemente single tracks are a blast. Just rode there this past Thurs and then went to Pizza Port afterwards.

I think I need to take a drive to San Clemente.

[dhmike]

my homies down in holland know how to brew it , i have to say best beer heinkein and i buy my beer at the market, most of the time ralphs .snoogins.

[jasonmason]

All this time I've been going to Pizza Port in San Clemente and I never knew there was riding down there! Figured it was all either developed or Marine land...would love to get a ride going on down there some time with PP afterward...
Don't rememeber if it was already mentioned, but Arroyo Liquor in San Dimas usually has some DFH 90 min floating around, and they've been know to have 120 minute from time to time...they're kinda like Hi-Time down in Costa Mesa without being tied to an amazing wine cellar!
And just to weigh in with a few gems from saturday's mammoth beer fest...

Craftsman Sour Lavender...3 years aged in oak!
Kern River IPA
Lagunitas HopStoopid...mmm...bottled and shipped south soon!
Sierra Nevada Anniversary
HBBrewCo Trippel - pleasantly suprised, these guys are usually fairly pedestrian

Thanks for posting Walnut Liquorette, they have Great Lakes beers. I have not had a Great Lakes since I moved out here, thanks.

[jasonmason]

They have Great Lakes?!? I just had Elliot Ness and Burning River for the first time in Michigan 3 weeks ago, figured I'd never find them back here...sweet!

Just had a pint on tap at Lucky Baldwins. Not as good as Ruination but it'll make any hop head happy.

I finally had a bottle of Stone Vertical 7-07-07 last night. It went well with my seared ahi burger at Library Alehouse. Nice spice.
