Excellent new taphouse in downtown Petaluma, well worth the 30-minute drive from Sebastopol. Cask Hop Stoopid, taps of La Folie, Marin Pt. Reyes, Stone RIS, Stone Collaboration, Valley Brew London Tavern Ale (tasty mild!), Anchor Small Beer, etc., this seems like possibly the best place in North Bay for California rarities and seasonals; hoping to see more of the Valley Brew one-offs appear up here. Packed on a Friday evening, with an expanded menu compared to what they have posted online. Very much looking forward to seeing how this location develops over the next few months.

Update: after an initial push from the RB Events Opening, these guys seriously do seem to get everything new and rare that comes to the area: Ommegang Adoration, Anchor Humming Ale, Valley Brew Uber Abbey, rare Firestone Walker brews, etc. Been here more than anywhere else in the area so far.
