Thursday 12/2/10
As most of you know I’ve been sick & at this point I am
sick of being sick. I needed to get out &
DO SOMETHING! I heard Sam Calagione
(founder/owner of Dogfish Head Brewery) http://www.dogfish.com/
was going to be at a local wine/beer bar in Philadelphia (TRIA)
http://www.triacafe.com/ so I ventured out to meet Sam.
|
Walking in the city is quite amazing – I missed quite a few PHOTO OPS –
i need to venture out more in Center City Philadelphia.
on my way to meet SAM –
I discovered a “downtown DOG SCHOOL”
 |
|
the dogs were all so cute -lined up in the window
waiting for their owners to come get them!!!
|
 |
|
VIZSLA!! of course I had to get this photo!!
He was a young vizsla – I’m sure he needs school!
|
 |
|
Made it to TRIA – no Sam yet.
They were using this contraption
that Dogfish invented called
“Randall The Enamel Animal”

Beer enters the infusing chamber from the bottom,
this maximizes beer-hop contact and forces foamy beer to exit at the top.
 |
|
tonight they were running
|
BURTON BATON through
“the enamel animal”.
Learn more about
Burton Baton here:

 |
|
$6.50 for a Burton Baton –
Tria is not an inexpensive bar…
|
 |
|
Stealth photo of SAM!!!!
He’s a beer celebrity!!!
|
 |
|
Of course I had to get my picture WITH SAM –
otherwise what was the point of coming out to play?
Look – we’re coordinated – BLUE!

It really doesn’t cost anything to be nice,
and the rewards can be unimaginable.
