Heretic Pint Night-- San Francisco

Hi Everyone. For those of you in the Bay Area…

My beer group-- Bay Area Beer Socials— is hosting a Heretic Pint Night at the Amsterdam Cafe (937 Geary Street, San Francisco, CA) on December 15, from 7 to 9 pm. Just wanted to throw the invite out there to anyone who wants to come. The event is open to the public so you don’t need to be a part of the group to attend. There is a good chance JZ will be there, but if not Chris (the head brewer) will be. Details are below. Let me know if you have any questions.

Amsterdam Café and Bay Area Beer Socials are bringing Heretic to San Francisco! Here is your chance to taste beers from one of the best up and coming breweries in California. Amsterdam Café’s pint night will be one of the few, possibly only place in San Francisco you will be able to get Heretic on tap. The beers will be $5 to $6 a pint, a list is below. Even better the brewer will be joining us to answer any questions you may have about the beer. This is going to be a great event; we hope to see you all there!

Beers on Tap:

Tafelbully- is a Belgian-inspired table beer based on a recipe from our friend Matt Staley. Tafelbully is the bully of the other table beers, pushing them around with its citrusy dry hopping, Belgian yeast spiciness, and a refreshing Brettanomyces finish. Even though it is a bit bolder than most, this is still a session beer. It features a delicate malt character from the European pilsner and specialty malts and judicious dry hopping with citrusy Sorachi and Amarillo to compliment the gentle fruitiness and delicate phenols of the Belgian and Brettanomyces yeasts.

Evil Twin- This blood-red ale may not be what you might expect from a malty and hoppy craft beer. Evil Twin has a rich malt character, without being overly sweet. It has a huge hop character, without being overly bitter. It is a great example of a bold, rich, balanced craft beer, without being heavy and hard to drink in quantity. Our Evil Twin is only bad because it is too good to resist.

Evil Cousin- Evil Cousin is Heretic’s take on a West coast imperial IPA. This beer is a bold, in-your-face hop monster. It has a light, easy drinking malt character that allows the hops to stand out. The hop character in this beer is intentionally on the dank side; big, sticky, and aggressive. This beer is for those of you who can’t get enough hops. Join us on the dank side.

I hope to make it up there and will have to look in to BABS.

If you are interested in the group just go to Meetup.com and look up Bay Area Beer Socials. We are currently the largest beer group in Northern California (maybe all of Cali) and have several events a month. Most of our events are in SF or sometimes the east bay. After the New Year will be making a bigger push into the Peninsula and beyond. :cheers:
