Sun Beer

In southern california the sun shines often. Stone Brewing Co., working with Borrego Solar, has invested in a $2.5 million solar system to help with environmental conservation. Stone's 312kw system consists of 1,561 roof-mounted solar modules, plalcing it in the top 12% of solar energy systems in California in terms of size. The system will supply up to 43% of the brewery's energy needs. If you have not visited the brewery, do it. The outdoor patio and garden is quite a treat. Read more about it here.

GABF

Hello, it's been awhile...again. Well today I confirmed my volunteerism to at the GABF. There are many perks, among them are "free" samples during the judging event, free breakfast, lunch, free tickets to the event, a box of randomized beer for each day worked and a "PRIVATE" friday night party. Sweet...I can't wait.
