Favorite Beer List of the Week

Resurrection Ale House draft board 8-5-10

After much delay I finally managed to make it over to Resurrection Ale House. On my long list of places to check out this one topped them all.  I'm embarrassed that it took so long to get there, but it was a perfect storm that allowed it all to happen. My rare day off, Shark Week and a celebration of Russian River.  Who could ask for more? 

Their beer board was no joke. Yes, that is the correct price for those RR drafts.  For the most part I stuck with the Vinnie creations only veering off course to finish with the Deschutes Black Butte Porter. 

A quick shout out to Rocco the man behind the bar.  Great on the taps and the beer IQ is impressive. Brendan and Leigh a huge thumbs up.  Guys you never fail to amaze.  At last I can say I've enjoyed all your establishments.

Stoned or a Resurrection?

Mr. Dan Bengel hit me with a Facebook invite that creates a slight biblical dilemma for Wednesday night. The Craft Ale House is having a Turn to Stone event with Stone Brewing rep extraordinaire Lee Marren supplying a fine mix of southern California goodies; Stone 13, Cali-Belgique, Sublimely Self Righteous, Ruination and Vertical Epic 9-9-9. Sounds perfect. Oops, Brendan and crew are opening the doors to Resurrection Ale House on the same night. Don't all you beer guys convene at a giant round table in a secret location so nights like this don't happen? Now a choice must be made. Do I head to the city for a resurrection or make my way to the country to get stoned? Decisions, decisions, decisions.




Big Dan's musical choice might be more spot on but I am feelin' this Black Crowes cover.
