Next week, you can get a mini fresh hop festival SoCal style at MacLeod Ales in Van Nuys.
No need to buy tickets, $40 at the door gets you pours from the breweries in the above graphic all made with hops from Eden Forest Collective just a little north of L.A. in Fillmore.
Now, to my eye, the six logo on the anniversary beer for MacLeod Ales looks a lot like the Trailblazer logo but with a bit lopped off. So I already like it. Factor in that this is a big Imperial Stout and I am hooked. Might make a trip to pick-up one of these boxes.
I have seen beer floats, beer flavored ice cream and even beer slushies, but MacLeod Ales has taken the concept to a different level.
They literally have a CVT soft serve machine at their Van Nuys tap room. So not only can you get British influenced beer, pizza next door, you can have ice cream as well.
