HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Happy Chinese New Year!  We are so thankful for 2016 but with any new year we always look forward for bigger and brighter things to come.  The past couple months have been crazy, with remodeling, to getting more things on the shelves and the most exciting, getting BEER.  Whats next for us is getting more product in, getting way more beer in, and start selling more things from our website.  So come often, come always and check out what's new!  Also, if you didn't get yours yet, we still have some Chinese New Year Calendars (pictured below).  Just ask us for one, they're FREE.

THE HOLIDAYS GOT US COLD, TIME TO GET COZY

It's that time of year, where we take out our extra blankets, roll out our space heaters (that doubles our energy bills), and bring out the darker beers to warm our tummies. If you slept on the release this year of the Goose Island Bourbon County Stout, don't worry we still have a couple bottles left.  But if that doesn't interest you, we always stock the usual like Deschutes Obsidian Stout, Victory's Storm King Stout, Mission Brewery's Dark Seas and our seasonal favorite, Ballast Point's Victory at Sea.  So skip the egg-nog, save your calories and drink dark, its just the best time for it.  Oh and here's a cute picture of our shop dog Little Chief the pug, showing us how he gets cozy.

Dogfish x Woolrich Collab

Dogfish Head Woolrich Pennsylvania Tuxedo Winter Beer

 

Voted by us, the best hipster beer we've seen that's worth trying.  How often can you say that a beer is hipster and good? This is our first, hopefully won't be our last.  So if you have an awesome 'stache or a flannel from the 90's, we've got a beer to go with it. Sprucey, piney wintery goodness, Dogfish Head's Pennsylvania Tuxedo Pale Ale is rated 90pts by the Bros from Beeradvocate.com.  Come in a grab a 4pk while they last!

Year of the Monkey!

Happy Chinese New Year!

Don't end your trip to San Francisco without stopping by to pick up the best Chinese style beef jerky!  One of the last few places that still make jerky on site here in San Francisco.  If you're lucky, you can catch us on a day that we're making it (but be warned, we can't pack it until it cools off).   So stop by, we'll be open the day of the Chinese Parade on February 20th until 4pm!  The parade starts at 5:15pm, more than enough time to get your snacks before all the festivities.  Take the cable car (Powell & Hyde route) and get off on Jackson and Jones, right in front of the store, you won't regret it, its the funnest ride in town!

See you soon!
