Surround Sound by Creative Arts is quite tasty.
The Beer Thread
It really is funny about sweet water tavern's beer and how that 99.9% of it is OK at best but then all of a sudden they have this one beer that's available and you can get pints of it, or a growler of it, and it knocks your socks off. So I say kudos too sweet water tavern and their beer.

When breweries decide to ship to VA, DC, OR, and PA, how do they arrive at shipping to Oregon? It seems kind of random.

hahah… I posted the same thing in a different beer thread. I really don't know… I'm guessing some sort of easy unique booze transport law to those states.
Edit: More importantly, how do they skip MD!

I have too many sour ipa's and fruited sours sitting in fridge, but if I needed some this would be good news… Hudson Valley Brewery now shipping to VA and DC. Not sure about MD.
I have never had their products, but I worship sours and sour ipas. Maybe I will order one of each of their 4 packs, just to see.
Shipping:
$15 for two four packs
$20 for thee four packs
$20 for four four packs
$25 for five four packs
Four packs of sour IPA's are in the $20-$22 range.
Anybody want to split an order of four four packs of sour IPA's? Would come out to about $50 for eight cans.

Be different if you were neighbors or met up regularly (unless I'm left out of all the regular bordie meetups)

For the record, my motivation is to try more beers without having to buy four of the same beer. I'd rather have four two packs than two four packs. The $5 saved would be lost in gas to get somewhere to meet.

not if you rode your bike ;)
I am headed to CA this weekend and NOLA next weekend and looking forward to checking out breweries in both places - in a COVID responsible manner of course
I will also be picking up some beer that has been accumulating for me on the West Coast for the past year including a 3L bottle of RR beatification

Sounds like the perfect bottle to pair with the 930 forum outing at Case de Brennser. 4oz pours for everyone!
Nice little Ocelot drop tomorrow at DTC.

I'll bring the Unibroue and home blend of Founders beers!
We'll be in California in July. We'll be as far south as San Diego and as far north as San Luis Obispo/Paso Robles. Any must hit breweries (or wineries) in that geographic range? I'm not sure what will be open for in-person…and will probably only go to places that have outdoor areas.

I'm not sure I have up to date suggestions for any of these places but here goes
Paso Robles - Firestone Walker
LA - Smog City (outdoor space), Monkish (outdoor space - personally I think they are way overrated), Mumford (not sure if outdoor space), Bottle Logic (not sure if outdoor).
San Diego - too many to name - don't know what's hot or even still open - Alesmith, Societe, Bottlecraft at Liberty Station for great draft selection and great food options
SanDiego

Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll make it to Orange County (Bottle Logic), and our vacation schedule makes Monkish iffy (depends on if they go back to seven days a week, if not maybe we'll be able to grab some cans the day we land). Staying for a couple nights in Santa Monica, not sure if we'll make it into LA proper (though my kid wants to selfie the Hollywood sign)
Case Agria is another one I'd like to hit that's actually on our driving route, but i don't think our schedule matches up.
There are multiple Firestone Walkers and Modern Times in our line of fire, so we'll hit those for sure.
I've been to some of the old San Diego County classics before, so looking for new blood. North Park looks like it might fit the bill. I think I went to Toronado SD in that neighborhood previously, but they closed. I think we're also staying close to one of the Lost Abbey locations for a few days.
It's hard to plan a vacation in a state where so much is still closed.

Absent a massive resurgence due to a variant, you will have very little to worry about come July. LA and Orange County are already in the Orange Tier and San Diego will likely follow next week. SLO might be a few more weeks. We are attempting to open to 16+ for vaccines on April 15 (supply permitting) and unless Easter weekend goes very poorly, we should be in yellow throughout most of the state by mid-May.
I would plan for a nearly completely opened restaurant/bar scene for July and choose indoor vs outdoor based on your own personal comfort.

Thanks. We've also got an adjustable amount of days planned for Yosemite. Some of the activities are just hikes we can drive to, but others are dependent on COVID reopenings (as well as Mariposa Grove reopening, which is not COVID related.)
If Yosemite turns out to be too much of a shitshow, I may readjust the schedule and go as far north as Santa Cruz. In that case, it's good to hear that Highway 1 is scheduled to reopen in full on July 1 (regardless of what April Fools jokes may say.)
