Hunting in Parkfield, and Beers 5 and 6


Over the weekend I was out in Parkfield hunting with my dad and Trevor, so that is the reason for the late beer update. The hunt for wild boar was unsuccessful, but we did have fun at the expense of some ground squirrels, driving around in the jeep, and drinking. Parkfield is quite beautiful right now, everything is green and all of the wildflowers are in full bloom. Watching the sun come up on a frosty morning out in the wilderness is hard to beat, and getting out to the ranch is a nice break from the SLO life. It is a great drive and the Parkfield Cafe has tasty food, so if you've never been there I would highly suggest doing so before summer rolls around.


Beer 5: Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA

This is an awesome beer, one of Sierra Nevada's best. Strong alcohol, bitter, and hoppy; hard to beat for an IPA lover like myself.


Beer 6: Stone Arrogant Bastard

Stone is my favorite brewery. Every beer they make is excellent. Most people do not like Stone beer or understand how one could enjoy the bitter hop-fests that they consistently produce. Arrogant Bastard embodies all that the brewery is about. It states right on the bottle that you will probably not like the beer, in fact, you'll probably hate it. But I love it. I am proud to like their beer, and I am an arrogant bastard about it.
