Completely out of the blue, this arrived today: Pyramid Brewing Coast Day Dry-Hopped Hazy Lager. I say “out of the blue” because as it turns out, I got a press release about this beer a month ago (literally—I just searched my email, and found it dated June 26) but since … Continue reading
Time for another Tuesday Tastings! Tonight I’m reviewing three beers from Pyramid Brewing that were sent to me this year (though I must confess, I am late in posting notes about).

Unfortunately while I did … Continue reading

A little background to this post… one of the things I love most about living in the Bay Area, especially compared to Southern California, is how commutable the area can be without a car. While hosting a pretty darned good mass transit system, San Francisco often ranks fairly high on … Continue reading
