Russian River

I doubt that anyone from Russian River Brewing Co. will ever read this, but I just want to say thank you and... Damn it! Why does the beer have to be so prestigious and coveted and difficult to get?!?

I'm proud to say that I finally got a lil allocation for some sought after Blind Pig IPA, but I want more.

Actually - the people want more. Even though we run a restaurant and bar - we're getting the Silverlake crowd into a finer taste for the crafty brews. 

So. If you're out there reading this... And you want some Russian River - rise up!

Come check out the bar, because I'm not going to stop pushing for the best beers.

It's all about the people, the product, and the experience.

Blind Pig IPA...

Damnation...

Just a start... Cheers!

You need a beer?

Alcohol is an interesting thing. Here at the restaurant it's a big part of business. The interesting thing about alcohol and craft beer specifically, is that its an item that people can afford in an economic time such as this. To some it may be a luxury, to others it's not a big deal. Either way, we have 24 taps from all around the world and they are all uniquely different in taste and profile - even if they're the same style of beer - they're so distinct from one another that it keeps you coming back for more. The fact that some of these beers are $4, $5 or $6 on happy hour... Well, forget about it... You need a beer?
