The Experience, Oakland: Pizzichillo – Gordon Glass

The team of Bruce Pizzichillo and Dari Gordon open their studio doors to the public only a few times a year.

The rest of those 365 are spent focused on nothing but creating stunning heirloom quality pieces along with beautiful, and sometimes whimsical, functional glassware.

If you are planning a holiday shopping excursion, or simply love to look at beautiful glass art, add the studio to your itinerary. You’ll find vases, bowls, lighting, jewelry, sculptural and wall art, and other items that you or your giftee will treasure.

Pizzichillo and Gordon’s work is sought after by collectors and galleries worldwide and has been featured in numerous publications. Inspired by nature, the rich, romantic colors of opaque and transparent glasses transport you, if only in spirit, to a place of wonder and awe.

Holiday Open Studio Hours:

November 25, 26 and 27
Saturdays in December: 3, 10, 17 (May be extended through December 24)
10 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Check their calendar for other open studio dates throughout the year – typically these fall in May, July and September, in addition to November/December.

When the studio is closed to the public, you can shop by appointment, and online.

The Experience, Richmond: East Brother Beer Co. New Release

The Experience:

A Winter’s Treat is Here!

Do you know the backstory of a Porter? Porters were the preferred drink of street and river porters working in Britain in the 18th century, hence the name of this style. This beer was the delight of these laborers at the end of their strenuous days and stuck to their bones during the chilly winters. In and out of fashion over the years, the porter evolved and became popular again in the last two decades.

East Brother Beer Co. is about to release this year’s Porter, just in time for the cooler days ahead. It’s made with Halycon Malt as the base, and Crystal, Chocolate, and Black malts that add flavor and complexity. A German Lager yeast boasts flavors of dark fruits, like plums and cherries, chocolate, and molasses. It’s both refreshing and comforting. A warming beer that pairs with winter fare such as heavy stews and soups, grilled meats and indulgent desserts.

November 17th is the release date. Mark your calendar and get down to the taproom to bring on some autumn and winter comfort!
