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.

I Run for Beer!

Yes, you heard (read) right. I will be running a 10k tomorrow morning at 7:30AM for BEER. That's 6.2 miles for those of you who can't convert kilometers. Although, the run will be hard I look forward to its beer garden. There will be 2 local breweries serving suds to those who complete the race. The breweries are Ballast Point Brewing and Stone Brewing. Yes, I said Stone. There may be an extra pint or two if I get a PR!
