Artisan Beer Found at graffEats, an SF Supper Club, TastyChefs, Episode

November 11th, 2009 · Comments · San Francisco, TastyChefs

I was lucky enough to hear about graffEats via an UrbanDaddy email awhile back.  I had never been, but was curious to find out more about the Underground Supper Club movement in San Francisco.  I was excitedly running around and filming my first graffEats experience the other night, and ran into two awesome guys in the hall.

Upon striking up a conversation, it was revealed to me that they were providing the beer for the night’s feast!

What a lovely element for Blair to bring in: inviting the passion behind Mayfield Brewing to attend the event.

John was kind enough to give me a sneak peek of the beer.

The champagne bottles filled with beer was a sight in itself.

All bottles have been sealed by being hand-dipped in wax,

and hand labeled as well as individually numbered by the batch!

Three beers were to be served that night.  The first, an altbier, (2007 and 2008 vintages) which is a german style ale (light, amber colored and smooth).

The second the Iconoclast Eclat, Mayfield’s IPA, (2007 and 2008 vintages),

and the third, the Iconoclast Nocturna (imperial stout) with flavors of chocolate, caramel, and other rich flavours.
