Man what a whirl wind SDBW has been, with 3 days left we are not slowing down. Yesterday I got a bottle of Iron Fist "Resistance". Their Wild Ale aged 10 months in Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc barrels and bottled for 2 months of maturation. I am at a crossroad as to whether or not I should open it or save it for a big bottle share. Yesterday Jason and I had a bottle of Telegraph Petit Obscura from Telegraph Brewing while we watched the Chargers get smashed by the Raiders. Petit Obscura is another american wild Ale aged with Brettanomyces and Lactobacillus. Very good sour with a deep sour nose. It has a smooth drink and can probably drink a bottle or 2.
Today I will be attending the Carrier Classic (Thanks Geoff). This is a College Basketball game pitting #1 North Carolina vs. Michigan St on the USS Carl Vinson. I cannot wait to watch Harrison Barnes play basketball in person. This is going to be an interesting game with the weather conditions outside. 66 degrees with a 20% chance of rain. Most kids do not play outdoor basketball anymore so it will be interesting to see the adjustments the players can make with the cold and the wind.
After the game we will be attending the grilled cheese pairing with Karl Strauss at K&B Win Cellars in Del Cerro. This is the one beer week event that Sarah has been looking forward to so I am excited to get her out. After that we will be headed to Tipsy Crow if the weather permits.
