Saturday afternoon we stopped in to check out the Hess Brewing facilities. Which was not as easy to find as it first seemed...the 15 minutes of torrential downpour as soon as we started to get close definitely wasn't helping. San Diego's first licensed nano-brewery...Small hand-crafted batches...51 Gallons each batch. I didn't retain that knowledge...I grabbed it off their website. For $10 you get 4 larger tastings in a Hess Glass that you get to take home. We had Claritas @ 5.8% ABV(Kolsch), Grazias @ 6.3% ABV(Vienna Cream Ale), Intrepidus @ 8.5% ABV(IPA) and Ex Umbris @ 9.8 ABV (Stout). The last two were a kick in the teeth...a very enjoyable kick in the teeth. I would have to say so far the Claritas was my favorite. I am ready to give them all another try just to double check. Mmmmmm beer.

I can't wait to try them for a first time. I might have to get you to ride with me so that I don't get lost looking for it like you did. I mean, if you have the time...
I can drop what I am doing at a moments notice...You just let me know buddy!
