Release Party at TORONADO for Brother David’s Double and Triple Abbey Style Ales
Anderson Valley Brewing Company was recently approached by a small group of Risiblarian monks from a local valley monastery. The sect wanted the brewery to brew a beer from the original monastery recipe that dated from the sect’s inception, in the year 1663. The brothers had found the recipe during a renovation. When enlarging a crypt they discovered a sarcophagus, sealed for years behind a wall of stone. Beneath the moldering bones sealed in the tomb, lay the recipe, which appeared to be written in blood on a lambskin parchment.
The Anderson Valley brewers gladly accepted the challenge, and working with the brethren developed two new world class beers. The beers were named after the monastic order’s founder – Brother David Keene (the great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather of the owner of San Francisco’s Toronado pub). In Honor of David’s ancestor who brewed the first batch back in 1666 the Anderson Valley Brewery’s beers will be release at the Toronado on lower Haight Street.
We do hope you will join us for this secular celebration of non-secular inspiration to quench ones thirsty soul.
The release of the Anderson Valley Brewing Company’s Brother David beers will be Feb. 20th at 6:30, at TORONADO, 547 Haight St. and Fillmore, San Francisco, CA.
