Brewers Fest '06

Well, the brew fest was a hit. We missed the parade but that just leaves us something to shoot for next year. 72 microbreweries represented and between the 5 of us, we sampled over half. The favorite could arguably be the Anderson Valley Brewing Co.'s Summer Solstice Cerveza Crema, an amber cream ale. It garnered such quotes as,". . .like melted vanilla ice cream..." and "Good enough for another full glass." from Zack and I also enjoyed a full glass my quote being. "Smooooooth!"
The Orange County Choppers were set up behind our table and we all ended up taking pictures with them. They gave us free magnets for the pics.
All in all, we had an awesome time and can't wait until next year. All those beer fans out there, remember it's always the last weekend of July. Be there or be square!
