Beer Week

EDIT: I meant to post thei ages ago but realized that I'd never it 'post'! No matter.  It was still a very fun evening and I hope you will enjoy reading all about it..

Did you know Sacramento had it's own Beer week? It was really an experience.  The "week" (it was actually two) kicked off for the Waterbabies at our favorite secret "Hideaway" a totally fun place that has pool, pinball and a great vibe.  After a great dinner, we sat around talking and playing cards. That's our very favorite thing to do recently...I'm not sure of the etiquitte but it sure is fun!

Later on in the week, we hit up the mustachioed bourbon, bacon and beer night at the Golden Bear. The food was amazing and the company just right. :) To say that this place is busy would be an understatement. We snagged a table and parked there all night, as it was way too packed to even get to the bathroom. We started the evening with a little bit of everything: burbon, beer and bacon. Personally, not my style, but the boys said it was so good, albiet a little sweet from the brown sugar. 

Please note: there are only two beers, I was the DD.

The coolest part was that the bartenders and bussers were really getting into it.  Everyone had a mustache and the bartenders were handing out strips of bacon to anyone walking by.  For dinner, the table split: Canadian bacon and chicken pizza, bacon wrapped prawns AND jalapenos as well as bacon wrapped pork belly, which came with a side of potato salad, and finally, my BAHN MI! I was so excited.  Remember back during our Valentine's day trip I tried the fantasticness that is this Vietnamese dish? Well during Beer week I had it again and it was amazing!! This has quickly replaced turkey as my favorite sandwich and I can't get enough. Too bad I can't get it anytime I want! Here's the menu:

 

They even handed out Mustaches to get everyone in the mood. We had our choice of 'stache and we (well I) has a blast wearing one.  Let me tell you they are sooo ITCHY! I don't know how guys do that.  A random fact overheard at mustache night: men with mustaches touch their face an average of 10,000 times a day.  I can see why!

All in all, Beer Week for the Waterbabies was a total sucess.  We had tons of fun and we're defintly going to make that Mustache party a recurring event on our calandars! :) I'm leaving you with a group shot of the waterbabies, the mister's bromance and my coworker/friends who joined us after dinner! Can't wait to do it again!
