The past few days have been jam-packed with new labels produced by many breweries around the Bay. People walking throughout downtown San Jose on beer crawls, microbreweries in San Francisco releasing limited edition concoctions of their special brews. Thats right; it's Beer Week.
SF Brew Week has been a local tradition for about a decade, growing bigger and bigger every year. This past weekend I joined my brother in the search for some new brews. On Saturday, Feb. 10, we ended up at Harmonic. Harmonic is a small brewery in the Dogpatch district of San Francisco.
For this years Beer Week, Harmonic showcased a wide variety of beer. I started with the Galaxadaisical, an American pale ale. Light, sweet, and a great compliment to the pop-up dumpling stand that was selling house-made gyoza's like hotcakes.
From Harmonic we went back home to an old favorite, Laughing Monk Brewing, located in the Bayview district. Too many were tasted to pick out a favorite. But the newly revamped tasting room allows double the seating capacity, and still offered Bayview-San Francisco related brews such as the 3rd Street Pale Ale and the Bayview Gold.
Successful weekend. Pizza and Netflix followed.
For now, this is the end. More to come. Drink responsibly.
