The Experience:

Almanac Sends Big Virtual Cheers & High Fives for Shopping Local!

As you bring in 2021, Almanac reminds you that ‘Beer is Agriculture’. From grain to glass, they brew a bold and delicious range of fresh and barrel-aged beers. And there are lots of choices! Here are some of their descriptions.

LOVE, LOUD!, VIBES, BOOST, TRUE, and WAVES compose their fresh beer core lineup. Each one has its own personality, hobbies, and quirks. Their Sournovas are naturally conditioned, mixed-culture sour ales, aged for months with real fruit in oak barrels creating juicy, tart, and refreshing brews. Inside their cans of Hypernovas, the flavor odyssey is intense, made with astronomical amounts of real fruit and a touch of lactose. Try their Sunshine & Opportunity collection as they brew these barrel-aged farmhouse ales with a California adventurous spirit. And then there is Farm to Barrel. These hyper-limited 375ml bottles are the ultimate expression of Almanac’s farm to barrel ethos. Enjoy safely!

Holiday Hours: 12-4pm New Year’s Eve and 12-7pm New Year’s Day. Regular Beer To-Go Hours are 12-7pm daily.

Virtual Reception: Friday, December 4, 2020, 6pm.
Exhibit: Friday, December 4th – Friday, January 8th: Mondays & Fridays 6-6:30pm

Since Shelter In Place (SIP) began, Artist and Engineer Bill Jeng has offered over 50 sessions of sketching and painting tutorials free for the community through SIP-N-Sketch. Students have joined Bill live on Zoom to learn his approach to sketching/drawing as an engineer and artist. They ask questions, share their work and get feedback in real time. Some have followed along with their own projects on Facebook Live.

If you’re interested in art from the perspective of an engineer, come join ‘Shelter-In-Place (SIP)-N-Sketch’ with Bill Jeng and meet some of his students in this online exhibit and virtual reception. Bill is joined by five of his students, Rita Ayral, Alice Dockter, Mark Neiman, Claudia Perkins, and Fred Toth, to celebrate the art that has resulted from Shelter-In-Place.

In the SIP-N-Sketch tradition, Fridays are Happy Hour, so bring your favorite cocktail/beverage to toast the creativity and hard work of these artists.

SIP-N-Sketch with Bill Jeng is offered free to the community. Bill asks if you would consider a donation to Rhythmix to help support the arts and the K Gallery which hosts 6 exhibits annually including free opening receptions for the public.
