Father's Office in Culver City has Pliny on tap right now, for anyone in the area. It's a double score because they also have the best hamburger on the planet.
Dinosmores? Putting *that* on my Midwest wish list.
Szeth - I'll keep an eye out. A few of the bottle shops here in So Cal that I frequent get some distro on Russian River, but it's really hit and miss.

Best hamburger you say? I'll have to check it out soon, thanks for the heads up!

I agree with this. I'm going to be down that way for business this week and a Father's Office stop is definitely going to happen.

I bought an 8 Maids about two weeks ago, but gave it to a friend as I forget to get him anything for his birthday. Need to get another before they're gone. I always end up missing their holiday releases. I'm going to try and sign up for their Preserve Society when it opens up in March.

I've only been to the one in Santa Monica. Can't remember what I ate though, apparently not the hamburger.

Their winter/christmas seasonal is based loosely around a day of that song 'The 12 Days of Christmas'.The Bruery | 8 Maids-a-Milking

Well shit, that makes just a little bit more sense.
Anyone down for a little holiday bottle trade?

I've become addicted to trading lately so... yes. I have access to some pretty great east coast IPAs, and some sours as well from OEC which is pretty amazing. I'd put OECs sours a cut above Almanac which is also amazing.

Glad someone else made their way down to OEC. The sours are great, are aged in a variety of specialty barrels, and are fairly cheap (for sours). They are a win-win-win. Too bad it's only open on Saturday.

I'm one town over from OEC so it's a no brainer for me. And some of their more rare stuff is insane. I've got a Figtasma laying down right now that is supposed to be insanely good.
Edit: for those in California. If you see Xocoveza Charred (it's made by Stone) you should probably buy it and trade me for some East Coast IPAs. They're a super limited release and it sounds like CT isn't likely to get any at all. They came out Monday and are showing up at craft stores in SoCal already.

Wifey gave me a beer fridge as an early xmas gift. I need to try and redo some config on the shelves to display the 750ml's because it's about an inch short due to the corks.

My wife just got me a beer fridge for my birthday last month, I think mine is the same brand as yours, you just have the fancier one with the touch-controls. I went with the cheaper one without those but I think they're both exactly the same size. I set mine up like this:
Can get 20 bottles on the upper shelf, 8 750ml bottles on the bottom shelf, and then misc. crap on the middle shelf (either bottles laying down, or cans upright. That box is a 6-pack of cans)
