| Perfect weather for Capitol Beer Fest |
Sacramento Beer Week is now a far enough behind me that I can see it without the haze of a beer glass. There were a myriad of events that I wanted to go to, but I can't be at more than one place at a time. Also, I was battling a cold and had to limit myself. However, I soldiered through and had the best Beer Week that I could. Below you'll find some highlights from my Beer Week excursions.
 |
| The festivities were kicked off at the CA Auto Museum with the Brewer's Showcase Mraz Brewing Company Morning Star was my favorite of the night |
 |
| New Glory's Wild, Wild West 100% Brett IPA has a subtle tartness that is balanced by a cracker sweetness and tropical fruit. This is one of the best beers I had all week |
 |
| San Diego invaded Midtown with the Sacramento Beer Enthusiasts, a Facebook group that organized a beer crawl that consisted of San Diego brewery tap take overs Pictured are samples from Green Flash and Alpine |
 |
| Hanging with the brew club during the 21st Amendment Capitol City Brewer's Battle The homebrew competition was held and Capitol Beer and Taproom |
 |
| Another of my favorite local beers Bike Dog Brewing's Milk Stout It is now available in bottles as is their San Dog IPA |
 |
| The coveted Delirium Tremens glass, I got the fourth to last glass from Streets They went through 10 cases of glasses in a hurry |
 |
| I had an amazing evening at the Blackbird Beer Pairing dinner. Oysters, crab cake and lamb sausage paired with beers from Mraz Brewing, Bike Dog Brewing and Device Brewing. |
 |
| Barrel tasting at Track 7, Sour Blonde on the left and BBA Belgian Stout on the left |
 |
| Capitol Beer Fest brought Sacramento's beer lovers together for the last official event of Beer Week. I had a great time and sampled oh so many great beers |
