Hit up the Bistro in Hayward's 9th Annual Double IPA festival on Saturday with some friends. What a great time this event is. There were close to 50 Double IPA's from around the U.S. to be had. This event is the annual kick off to SF Beer Week.
Didn't make it close to trying them all of course. But some personal highlights for me were:
Pizza Port Solana Beach Lou P. Lin
Triple Rock Imaxx
Stone Sublimely Self Righteous Ale
Marin White Knuckle
Deschutes Hop Henge Experimental
The judging went like this:
1st place: Pizza Port Carlsbad Poorman's IPA
2nd place: Triple Rock Imaxx
3rd place: Bear Republic: Apex
People's choice: Pliny The Younger
The weather was quite nice for the majority of the day. Making an already great day more enjoyable.
Beer Advocates out in full force.
Thanks to the Bistro staff for putting on a great event.
