Tonight is Beer Friday. Doors open at 6pm (5:30 for Beer Club Members)

New Subscriber? Beer Friday Info!

Devil's Canyon Brewery is a brewery and is generally not open to the public. We sell our beer to bars and restaurants up and down the peninsula. Here's the current list of locations. If someone forwarded you this email, please check out the website and join the mailing list.

On the last Friday of the month we open our doors to the public at 6pm (Beer Club Members: 5:30pm) and have 2 or 3 live bands. There is no cover charge. Your first drink of the night is $8.00. You get to keep the Devil's Canyon pint glass and bring it back to future events (Reduce, Reuse!). After that, drinks are only $4.00. Food, Wine, Root Beer and Water is also available.

We are family friendly but the brewery is not “kid-proof” so keep an eye on the little ones! We can’t be held responsible if they get all Augustus Gloop’d Willy Wonka style.

If you or an acquaintance own a bar, restaurant or somewhere that local award-winning beer and root beer isn’t being served – talk to us! We’d love to do a tasting and see what styles fit best at your location.

If you are a local business that may be able to use our beers and root beers in your recipes – we are very interested in that as well. Ask us about our partnership program.

Thank you for continuing to support the bars and restaurants that carry our products!

Brewer’s Burp? – Well Pardon Me!

This is only going out to the Mailer Subscribers and Twitter Subscribers. The Uber Fans. The Deadicated Ones.

Beer Friday gets crowded. It’s a lot of fun, but a lot of people know about it.

Do you know what’s less predictable? Burps.

Never know when one’s gonna come up - Kinda’ like our new Brewer’s Burp Parties.

Ya just never know when we are going to twitter “BURP 03July, 6pm” or “BURP – Bring Your Pool!” or something like that. However, you now know that it means we will be open, informal and you better be ready for the unexpected even though, technically, that is impossible – like giving 110%. But you get the idea. Watch for BURP announcements.

Brew On Premise – Our Gear, Your Beer

What if you could make your own beer on a professional brewing system, under the guidance of award-winning brewers? You could tweak that special homebrew recipe, have a company team-building event, or just meet up with your mates.

Devil’s Canyon Brewery is the only location in the San Francisco Bay Area that still have a Brew On Premise program!

During the approx. 5 hour process under the guidance of an award-winning brewer, you will make enough beer for a 13.2 gallon keg or about 5 cases of 22oz bottled beers.

Make it an event with friends and you can mix and match cases of your different brews.

This is a perfect activity for a unique twist on any type of event you might host.

BOPs are extremely sought after and they fill up almost as soon as we announce them.

· Your best bet is to ensure you are on our Twitter feed. That is the first place we will post a notification.

· Secondly, check the website and the brewery calendar.

· Lastly, simply ask the BOP Coordinator when the next one is!

If you have a special need to use our brewing system we do occasionally run batches for special group events. Please contact us with the details of you idea!

Full Boar Scotch Ale – Hopscotch Cheddar Cheese

· In case you don’t know . . .

· Hopscotch is a gold medal winning cheddar cheese from Fiscalini, soaked in Devil’s Canyon Brewing Company’s award winning Full Boar Scotch Ale!

· Immediately after the cheddar has been milled, the milled curds are soaked in the Scotch Ale for two hours. Then, the cheese is placed in molds and pressed for 18 hours. After pressing, the 40 pound blocks are weighed, vacuum sealed and boxed for aging. The appearance is pleasing as the white cheddar is highlighted by the dark beer surrounding each of the pressed curds. At 4 to 5 months the flavor of the cheddar and the ale engage in a unique tasting experience, and becomes more intense with further aging.

· A great cheese alone, it is also wonderful melted on pizza, burgers, quesadillas, mac ‘n cheese, etc. We also recommend pairing Hopscotch Cheddar with Devil’s Canyon’s Full Boar Scotch Ale, or any of their award winning beers.

· Available online from http://www.GreateerCheese.com/ , it has come to our attention that Bianchini’s Market - good old fashioned service in the heart of San Carlos - now has it as well!

· (Bianchini’s Twitter? http://twitter.com/Bianchinis)

· What are you waiting for? Get Moooo-ving! (Sorry.)

Tap Tail Vinyl Stickers Now Available

Well this is exciting – several nights spent at Tech Shop using sophisticated computer stuff and a vinyl cutting machine has produced the first ever available Devil’s Canyon bumper sticker-like tap tail laminate!

We have had people ask us repeatedly about getting bumper stickers from the brewery but we have never been able to figure out the best phrase or design to put on one.

“Drink Local Beer” or “Support Your Local Brewery” sounds great in a staff meeting. It’s a different ball of wax when you get stopped for accidentally rolling a stop-sign on a Saturday night.

The answer came to use as we poured a nice frosty draught Root-Beer (now available in refillable ½ gallon Growlers.) The Tap Handle!

We have a limited supply of sizes from 1” to 12” but we will be making more so if you don’t get one this Beer Friday you can grab one anytime you stop by to refill a growler or say hello.

Send photos of your Tap Tail to TapTail@DevilsCanyon.com - and here are the Tap Tail Directions (PDF) for your early perusal.

Beer Friday Bands And Caterererer

Food will be catered by 1st and Main Sports Lounge (www.FirstAndMainSportsLounge.com)

The Beer Friday Music Is Courtesy Of . . .

Eleven Wails (www.elevenwails.com) from 6-8

Eleven Wails is a Reggae / Rock / Ska / Pop band that plays a danceable blend of 50% Original and 50% copy tunes done in our own style of reggae & ska infused rock.

The band consists of seasoned versatile professionals, with the core of Tommy Steele on vocals and guitar, Dave Roe on drums and vocals, and Hiroshi Murakami on bass. We most often add a couple horn players, including Mike Parykaza on trumpet and bone, Mike Luzzi on sax, and Tommy Tuesday

on alternate trumpet.

The show is fun and loose, with good audience rapport and excellent musicianship, including some goofy antics and showmanship.

From 8:30 to 11 or so festivities will be handled by the five-piece rock and roll band based somewhere between Redwood City and San Carlos performing everything from Green-Eyed Lady to Purple Haze. They call themselves . . . Knick Knack Jones.

(They have a great website with sound clips here)

Best and Cheers!
