Toronado Barleywine Festival

I spent a part of Saturday tasting barleywines at Toronado's Annual Barleywine Festival. Toronado is an excellent beer bar with a wide selection of microbrews right near me, and they host this festival as part of SF Beer Week. Although it was a zoo, I got to taste a wide variety of these alcohol-heavy brews, made easier by the reasonable prices. Since I didn't have my camera, I wanted to link to one of my favorite blogs, Beer & Nosh, who has this report from the event.

My brother was in town for the weekend, and we ended up at Toronado on Sunday night, skipping the crowds. They still had most of the beers available. Then we went to Alembic, but somehow managed to arrive after the kitchen closed, so we missed out on their pairing dinner. I saw the menu on the chalkboard, though, and it looked great.
