Well, I'll be in San Jose (Silly Con Valley) all next week.  And yes, before you've asked, I've tried Gordon Biersch.  It's OK.  Nothing spectacular.
I guess I was just rattling cages.  I'm a Guinness, Heineken and Vokda/Redbull kind of guy myself.  At least now that I've grown older, gotten sensible and given up hard drugs...
