Pulling in to Santa Rosa, I was a bit taken aback by the main drag through town being closed for a “Cattle Drive” which involves a head of cattle being driven through town. As cow pies were being hosed off the streets and the dust cleared, I finally made my way into Russian River. I just had to do the tasting flight, which consists of a dozen beers. It was pretty fun to try a bit of all the beers on the menu, and it gave me a good idea of ones I wanted to try a full pint of later on. Three different IPA’s were being served: Russian River IPA, Pliny the Elder, and Blind Pig IPA. Also being served were a white beer, a stout, a blonde, and three different barrel aged sour ales.

American Belgian Fest at Collins Pub
When it comes to good beer, brews made in Belgium are usually the cream of the crop. So, no one should be surprised that American brewers often try to emulate their success by brewing their own versions of Belgian styles. And you know what? Some of them are fantastic (And some, not so much...)
Collaboration, Not Litigation
What would most modern-day companies do if they found out that a competitor had a product with the same name as their own? Most companies would sue the hell out of each other.
