Isn’t beer just the best subject the whole world over?

One of the things I love about San Franciscans is how involved they are in their environments. They care about what grocery store moves into their neighborhood, what tree’s are removed and replaced and generally, the city is better because of it. In this case however, one neighbor crossed the common sense line. I don’t want to blow this out of proportion, and from the looks of the pictures, many more of you came in support, but I feel like it’s important to note the absurdity. There are enough (too many in my opinion) guidelines in place restricting what can and can’t do in our homes. These people are giving away fee beer. I’ll say that again, giving away free beer. I implore you all to embrace THE FREE BEER, you don’t know how good you have it.

Glad to hear all this worked out and that things will continue. I’m looking forward to the next time I’m in the area to come and have another pint. It has been WAAAAAY to long.

When does the Pub Store open so I can show my support by buying a hat, t-shirt or mug?

Fascinating. Glad it worked out for you. I thought what you were doing is illegal, too. Many states prohibit the free distribution of alcohol without an ABC permit, period, and I assumed California was the same and (seriously) all those Franzia boxed-wine art openings were violating the law.

Thanks! But I want to be sure to point out again that in this case, “the rules” and the “san francisco rules” are one in the same.

Can’t wait to have you over later this Spring!

Cheers,
Richard.

It’s nice to see yet another example of SF Cops being reasonable and understanding. Everyone knows, there are “the rules” then there are “san francisco rules” … and we all love it here because of the latter.

Looking forward to summertime open houses!

Glad this had a happy ending. Ever so slightly sad that my first visit came right before the hiatus. Ever so much looking forward to sampling the fruit of your labors in a few weeks!

Richard,

I am glad to hear this story has a happy ending. I am delighted to have the ‘Pub Club’ and your family as neighbors.

Brew on!
