Don’t Miss: Taps Hosts UFC Ultimate Flight Challenge of Rare & Heavy Beers

SATURDAY! SATURDAY! SATURDAY!

This just might be the last bottle of Sam Adams Utopias in the Yay Area (minus, perhaps, some über-rich beer geek’s cellar). It’s currently waiting at Wilibees Liquors in Petaluma for its bout in Saturday night’s UFC Ultimate Flight Challenge at TAPS.

You’ve got one chance to taste Utopias alongside heavyweights like Speakeasy‘s Brewer’s Reserve Old Godfather (14%) and Firestone‘s Saucerful of Secrets (12%). Call for tickets now or you may miss it …

This Sucks: Lagunitas Announces Brown Shugga’ Substitute Holiday Ale

[like]

Every year when Lagunitas throws the after-party for Petaluma Whiskerino, the timing always lines up with when they’ve just tapped the first run of Brown Shugga‘—their magically sweet, deliciously hoppy holiday brew. It signaled the end of a hairy few months and the beginning of the hearty holidays. But not this year.

Here’s why none of us will be imbibing the incredible Shugga’ this year. And why Lagunitas sucks: See the rest »

Crime: Blue Öyster Cult Dropping Umlaut for Petaluma Show?

One of the grandfathers of the unnecessary umlaut going sans umlaut?

Not in my town. Thankfully these were around to enforce Blue Öyster Cult‘s proper spelling.

Video: World’s Ugliest Dog Contest 2011 Highlights

Here’s what you missed at the annual World’s Ugliest Dog Contest at the Sonoma Marin Fair in Petaluma. If you’ve seen the awesome Worst In Show documentary you’ll recognize many of the ugly dogs (and their owners).

Contrary to their gnarly appearances all are healthy and super-loved by their owners.

Not just another quirky Petaluma event (they’ve got tons) it also serves as a great case for pet adoption. Every animal deserves a good home, “ugly” or conventionally cute.

KYEO: The Billboard That Made Me Rethink Eating Cats

This brings up a terrific question: Why don’t you eat cats?

Bacon comes from an animal half as cute. Shouldn’t cats be twice as delicious?

There’s even a festival devoted entirely to eating cats Festival Gastronomico del Gato every September in Peru. Alas, this is not an ad for said fest. Nor does the Starter Guide set you down the path to becoming a feline feast fancier. It’s actually some sort of meatless propaganda. Bummer. Now it’s got me rethinking other animals, too. Like a grilled Panda Cow or Poodle-Bison burger. Mmm.

Spotted in Petaluma (the same placement as Healy’s Naked Power grab).
