This week we decided to venture out of the Mission a bit for our team lunch. We went to Starbelly on 16th and Market. Great food and a huge beer selection.

Jackson and I both got the Allagash Curieux (Bourbon Barrel-Aged Tripel), which I now think is one of my favorite beers of all time.

I had an awesome half chicken with egg. Yum.

It was nice getting out of the Mission. A quick 10 minute walk took us to cleaner streets, higher quality food, and service without attitude.

Hot Glass, Cold Beer is a really great event put on by Public Glass in San Francisco. For just $25, you get unlimited food, beer, live music, and get to watch skilled craftsmen work with glass. While we were there, they constructed most of a man, including feet (shoes), legs, and attached a torso.

You can see more photos and some video here.

You know it's going to be a great day when before noon you've already gone for a swim and you have a beer in hand.

Super cool place. Huge beer selection, lots of meat, and it's cheap.

This is one of my all time favorite beers, made in Paso Robles, CA. I had it for the first time in downtown SLO many years ago. Delicious, and the box is awesome too. Go get some now, only $23 for a case.

Anchor Steam is a great brew, made right here in San Francisco. I'm hoping to take a tour of their factory sometime in the next few months.

How much of this can I fit in my car? I love costco

There were a couple times at Costco when Kate asked, "Is that the price for the whole thing?" Yes, it is that cheap. We skipped buying a couple things because we thought to get them at Safeway. Turned out we could have bought them at Costco for *less* money, used as much as we wanted, and thrown out the rest. Not that we would waste, but damn, Costco is cheap.

Joe was in town last week so we went out for an afternoon beer. (Click to view large size)
