Drink for a Cause with Ingrid's 1 in 8<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you have your copy<\/a> of the December 2010 issue of West Coaster, <\/em>you\u2019ve read the story behind Ingrid\u2019s 1 in 8<\/a>, a Ballast Point\/Coronado collaboration beer benefiting breast cancer research.\u00a0 Last night at Hamilton\u2019s Tavern<\/a> in South Park, Ingrid herself was on hand to tap the cask of her beer \u2013 this version with Grand Marnier oak chips and even more cocoa nibs.\u00a0 Hamilton’s generously donated 100% of the proceeds of the cask and 20% of the draught to charity.<\/p>\n

\n

Like most Fridays, the place was packed. The casks tapped every Firkin Friday are a South Park staple, especially last night \u2013 Ingrid tapped the cask at 5pm and we arrived after our last round of deliveries<\/a> to the sight of a \u2018tender scribbling OUT on the board.\u00a0 The good news: we won\u2019t have to wait long to attend more great cask beer events<\/a> at Hamilton\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Next Saturday, December 11th<\/sup>, AleSmith will take over.\u00a0 In fact, every 2nd<\/sup> Saturday of the month sees great beers on cask.\u00a0 The AleSmith event<\/a>‘s cask lineup? Winter Yulesmith and Wee Heavy with Heavy Toast oak chips soaked in Islay Scotch Whiskey.\u00a0 If you think that\u2019s a mouthful, just imagine what the beer will taste like.\u00a0 The draught list is stellar as well: Evil Dead Red, Winter Yulesmith, IPA, XPA, Horny Devil, Lil\u2019 Devil, Anvil, Speedway Stout, Wee Heavy, Nautical Nut, and Old Numbskull.\u00a0 If that\u2019s not enough, how about mouth-watering food to go with it?\u00a0 Indulge in some smoked honey baked spiral ham, sweet potato apple bake, warm bacon and brusell sprout slaw, cheesy, creamy, crunchy potatoes and Wee Heavy bread pudding.\u00a0 Still<\/em> not convinced? For music: \u201cDennis the Menace rocks you like a hurricane!\u201d<\/p>\n

If you can\u2019t wait to rock, head over to their sister bar in City Heights, Eleven<\/a>.\u00a0 Throw a couple bucks in the jukebox at this rock-n-roll spot this Monday and enjoy the introduction of Coronado Brewing Co.\u2019s Winter Brew.\u00a0 To top it off, $4 to keep the glass, $3 for refills.\u00a0 This venue showcased the Yeastie Boyz\u2019s first and last performance during San Diego Beer Week<\/a>, and was also the location for our December 2010 cover shoot.\u00a0 If you like free peanuts, awesome beer, and a unique atmosphere, Eleven is the place to be.<\/p>\n

The next Ingrid\u2019s 1 in 8 cask event will be held at The Tipsy Crow<\/a> on Tuesday, December 7th<\/sup>.\u00a0 Ingrid will tap the cask at 6pm (so come early!) and the venue is donating 20% of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
