Golden State Ale – Nojo

Golden State Ale - Nojo

Uncommon Brewery, “Uncommon beer for uncommon people”, organic, 16 oz. $6.50
Nojo, San Francisco CA

I’d never seen this beer before so I had to order it. And as a trained botanist, I immediately fell in love with the beer can art. I included my own pic of some California poppies to keep the theme going. As for the beer, I really liked it! It was light and very tasty.

Omg, this was heaven! It was rich and decadent and SO delicious. I loved the consistency of the warm white cheese sauce and the thick slices of bread pudding were perfect. Noms!

Puka punch - Smuggler's Cove

“Mere mortal bartenders quake in fear at the sight of eleven carefully measured ingredients, but not our intrepid crew. Such is the nature of a great exotic cocktail like this masterpiece from the world famous Tiki-Ti in Los Angeles. Four juices, four rums, and a sea of spices make this ‘Superb in Taste Sensation’.” $14
Smuggler’s Cove, San Francisco CA

This is definitely a silent killer! It tastes SO delicious and fruity that you forget that it’s also packed with a ton of alcohol. One of these definitely gets you going so be careful, you don’t wanna barf in their indoor water feature. Lol!
