The Beer Retard - January 22nd, 2008

For the time being, you may not see as much Seattle beer content here. The reason for that being that I'm now doing local beer blogging for Metroblogging Seattle. I'll still be writing stuff here about all the trips I take and all the beers I try. If you'd like to subscribe to my Seattle beer posts on the Metroblogging site, check out my profile page for the link to an RSS feed.

My first post: Schooner Exact Brewing: One Year Anniversary

President's Day weekend (February 16-18) is going to be epic. Saturday is the Toronado Barleywine Festival in SF. Sunday is Celebrator's 20th Anniversary party in Oakland. I have my plane ticket and a place to stay. Somehow in the midst of all this craziness, I'm going to have to make it to both Magnolia and 21st Amendment and try at least half of the 12 beers they're making for Strong Beer Month (not sure about Watermelon Wheat Wine, though). Luckily, I'll have some time on Friday and maybe Saturday if I'm sober enough after all those barleywines. It's gonna be an insane couple of days.

Oh yeah...nice AC/DC tribute.
