Russian River Brewing Is Perfection

and some beer things to read

Welcome to Drinking & Thinking! Here to make life with beer slightly better.

Respect The River

Props to Beer Night In San Diego for bringing this up. I love to drop the info on Pliny being a cheap beer when you consider everything - even in a time of inflation.

Not sure how Russian River is able to do this AND be so perfect with how they make and distribute their beer and still have a profitable business. They are the model for an Indie Brewery, for sure.

Drinking Digest

This should be a good weekend as it is backed by this singles haul. I already had the Peeper from Maine Beer Co - it was like a Lager-ed Pale (if that makes any sense).
