The Russians Invade Portland
No, not THOSE Russians, I'm talking about Russian River Pliny The Elder and Blind Pig IPA from Santa Rosa, CA. We're only getting 3 cases of each. Yes, 3. That's a mere 72 bottles, and given the ridiculous number requests we've gotten (don't forget, we brew some tasty IPAs in Oregon too!) the boss decided to limit this allotment to one bottle of each variety per person. I realize it's less than ideal, but a little Pliny is better than no Pliny, and if we didn't restrict it some hop-crazed fiend (like me) would come and snatch it all up.
The beer will go on sale this afternoon at 5:30, so come on down after work and help fend off the invasion. If you're here between 6-8 you can also try samples of Meantime IPA and London Porter, listen to Alistair Hook (owner of Meantime) speak about his brewery, and grab a couple bottles on sale if you dig 'em.
See you tonight!
