Hi All! Almanac has posted the details and menus for two awesome beer dinners we're doing for SF Beer Week. You can see the events here, including full beer and food menus: Alaskan Seafood Almanac Beer Dinner January 23 @ 6:30 pm - 10:00 pm 7 course beer dinner featuring Alaskan Seafood and Almanac Special Releases http://www.beeradvocate.com/events/info/77469/ Chef’s Night Out Almanac Beer Dinner January 24 @ 6:30 pm - 10:00 pm 6 Course Beer Dinner featuring an all-star chef lineup and Almanac Beers http://www.beeradvocate.com/events/info/77470/ I spun up this thread to answer any questions you might have about these delightful dinners, other SF Beer Week events or our special releases (including the return of Don't Call it Frisco DIPA, Valley of the Heart's Delight, Hoppy Sour: Mosaic and more.)

Is Don't Call It Frisco going to be more or less the same as last year? That beer was surprisingly excellent.
We've made a few tweaks to it (simplify the malt bill a bit, futz with hop schedule) but the basic idea remains the same. We also have much better hop availability now, so it's while it's citra heavy, it also get mosaic and azacca to round out the dry hop. We will also be releasing "Summer in San Francisco" a session IPA brewed with orange peel and tangerines, dry hopped like a double IPA.
sorry to derail the thread a bit, but do you plan to ever open a taproom? the south bay/peninsula needs a good one!
