We’ll round that off with tasty Mexican food from local favorite La Laguna Taqueria. “In addition to featuring our regular line of beers, Friday will be the public debut of our new beer brewed special for the CBC called Snatch Racket India Pale Lager. Snatch Racket – named for the surge of kidnappings and ransoms in 1920’s during prohibition – is a unique blend of styles, a 6.5% full bodied lager dry-hopped like an IPA with all German hops. We’ll also be pulling a few rare aged beers from the cellar just for the night.”

More on the CBC beer brewed by Russian River and Sierra Nevada, which will be featured Thursday night at Public House:
The team at Russian River bottled it a couple of weeks ago and it’s now conditioning in large pallet cages in the brewery before labeling.
This sour brown ale was made by Russian River with Sierra Nevada, using the latter’s Keller Weise yeast for the primary fermentation, and barrel aged with Russian River’s house “bugs and critters” in wine barrels from Fritz Maytag’s York Creek Vineyards. Sampling his creation two weeks after bottling, Russian River’s Vinnie Cilurzo reports: “The bottle I opened had a giant Cabernet Sauvignon characteristic.” Sounds delicious, and we’re anticipating more fun surprises from the other three special beers!
