Yeah for Cali!

I don't usually get excited about California, because I don't get to go there very often.  I would love to see the Chargers play in San Diego though.  Today, there was a law change in California concerning the tasting of beer at microbrews:

Small craft beer brewers won exemption Monday from expensive food safety rules that have to be followed by restaurants. It's the same exemption now enjoyed by winery tasting rooms.

Gov. Jerry Brown signed AB1014, which gives breweries the ability to set up their own tasting rooms, according to an analysis, "where samples can be tasted, enjoyed and promoted."

It is nice to see an even playing field when it comes to tasting, wine should not have an advantage over beer.  Speaking of Cali, I would love to go to Chico Ca., and go to Sierra Nevada Brewing, one of the largest craft brewers in the USA.  Try the green label Pale Ale from Sierra Nevada, very good beer, a classic CA pale ale.  San Diego also has a fantastic brew scene, Stone is highly regarded, Arrogant Bastard from them is rated very well...
