    Epic San Francisco

    Posted: February 8th, 2009, 10:26am CET by Thom

    This beer trip to the Bay Area has been just awesome. We finished our final night at 21st Amendment Brewery in downtown San Francisco by the ballpark. Huge, heavy hitter beers all over 8%! OK, there was like one beer that was 5% but the rest were like 9% and 11%! Afterwards, we headed over to Chinatown IN A LIMO that our new best friend Matt hooked us up with. And then things went a little sideways. For one, we drank some crazy Chinese whiskey that tasted a little sweet and herbal. A few beers later, apparently Dave got a little punchy (literally, Dave likes to throw punches when he’s really drunk) which caused Dan to… Well, anyway, the end result was that Dave’s glasses are broken and it was apparently a quiet march back to the hotel. After we tucked Dave in, a few of us snuck back out again through the phallanx of transvestite prostitutes (”If she ain’t a dude, then why is she wearing a scarf with that mini-skirt?”) to the R Bar to finish in style: shots, Coors Lights, Jaeger Bombs, and a comemorative coozy that says, “Pregnant chicks drink for free.” San Francisco gave us great weather, amazing scenery, lots of new friends, and an appreciation for the Cali beers. Oregon may be home, but there’s a warm spot in our hearts and dark spot on our livers for San Francisco.
