03-Feb-2016: Dogtown Duck IPA by Venice Duck Brewery of Venice, CA. When there's a local option, have to go local. And since I made it to the airport earlier than I expected, and had time to kill without lounge access since it was a domestic flight, I popped in to Rock & Brews to try one of their local offerings. The server described this to me as a "malt-covered pinecone." Indeed, it's a very hoppy, green West Coast IPA. #ottbeerdiary

02-Feb-2016: Tasting flight with lunch at Beachwood BBQ and Brewery in Long Beach. Beachwood was just voted Best (Beer) Restaurant in California in this year's #ratebeerbest awards, so I had to pay a visit when I was around the corner for my Global Entry and APEC business traveler interview. Here I tried the Laurel IPA, FV9 Double IPA, Hops of Fury Triple IPA, and Beer Camp Across America Pilot Batch Stout collaboration. Excellent beers, and a very good pulled pork sandwich as well. #ottbeerdiary

1-Feb-2016: Angel City IPA by Angel City Brewery of Los Angeles. 6.1% ABV. An OK IPA from an LA Brewery. Malty and a little bitter. A bit wheaty. Not my favorite style of IPA, but they had it for sale here at the hotel after a long day driving back down to LA from Santa Rosa. #ottbeerdiary

31-Jan-2016: Mornin' Delight by Toppling Goliath Brewing of Decorah, IA. Pitch black color with a slight dark brown ring of head. Coffee aroma. Coffee and chocolate abound on the flavors. Slight anise notes. Wonderful! After trying a sip of SR-71 the previous night, and then starting off with this at the festival, it's very apparent why Toppling Goliath is named as one of the best breweries in the world. #ottbeerdiary #ratebeerbest

30-Jan-2016: At #ratebeerbest bottle share. Black Gold by Central Waters Brewing Company of Amherst, WI. 11% ABV Imperial Stout. I had so many different beers at the share, but this one was at the top of the pack (after the Toppling Goliath SR-71, but I only had a tiny sip of that one. Black Gold was impressive. Oh my lord. Great aroma. Oak and vanilla. Dark dark flavors. Some dark black cherry noted. Hints of anise. If this wasn't a bottle share, I'd have gone for a second pour! #ottbeerdiary
