I was planning on taking a trip up to San Francisco to visit the City Beer Store and Healthy Spirits this weekend... but then I found online reviews for Perry's Liquor store in Livermore.  Could all these great beers really be tucked away in a strip mall in .... a town in the east bay that doesn't have much going for it?   The answer is a resounding yes.  Apparently they get in fresh cases of Pliny and other RR beers every Thursday.   Amazing!

I'd like to present the beers I picked up tonight, from left to right.

Russian River Blind Pig (#84),

Russian River Pliny the Elder (#6) - I've had this before, of course,

Russian River Sanctification (#59),

Russian River Consecration (#41),

Russian River Supplication (#13) - very excited to find this!,

The Lost Abbey Angel's Share (bourbon barrel aged) (#86),

Stone Imperial Russian Stout (#31),

Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel (#67),

AleSmith IPA (#57),

Alesmith YuleSmith Winter Ale (Not on the top 100 list - I picked the Winter instead of the Summer off the shelf.  Only the label coloring is different, d'oh!  Still looks like a great beer),

Deschutes Brewery The Abyss (#5) - I've had this before as well... sooo delicious,

Trappist Achel - because it's a Trappist I haven't tried yet!  6 of 7 after my Westy arrives.
