    Planning to hit Moonraker and Moksa. Anything else a must-visit?

    (I've been to Fieldwork in Berkeley, so it's low priority for me.)

    For bottle shops, definitely go to La Riviera Market. I guess you know Moonraker’s a bit of a drive from Sac proper, but definitely worth it.

    Since you are hitting Moonraker (which you should!!!), you might as well hit Knee Deep since it is walking distance from Moonraker.

    For Sacramento Proper, my hit list is usually: Urban Roots, Fieldwork, New Glory, Track 7 and Device

    Are you only going to Rocklin/Auburn? or are you going to be in Sacramento as well?

    Moksa has a bottle release on Saturday. (Member pickup today).

    Moonraker also has a few cans still left from the last release a few days ago. Pretty solid tap list as well right now.

    I'd say if you're into sours (both kettle and barrel aged), you should check out Mraz in El Dorado Hills. It's roughly 40 minutes from Moonraker, and they'll have cans and bottles to go. They have non-sour beer too, but I've personally not tried them.
