I was looking through the photo album on my phone and found this one from the night of my birthday party.
I had just moved back to San Francisco about five days prior. I had my birthday get-together at one of my favorite bars here, The Homestead (you can see the "H" stamped on my wrist). I love the jukebox there, so I played songs all night. I'd never had this beer before and was loving it - it had the perfect combination of coffee and chocolate flavors. I held it up to the light of the jukebox so I could take a photo of the label to remember it. You can't see them in this photo, but a bunch of my friends and coworkers - and even some of their dogs! - were there with me. It was a great night, so looking at this photo makes me happy.
