Calicraft Brewing Co. and @thenewparkway are ecstatic to present a truly unique beer and food pairing event to Kill Bill 2. Following the success of last year's Kill Bill Night at Sundance Kabuki Cinema, we decided it was appropriate to bring the action packed sequel to our favorite theater in the East Bay. Expect a rip roaring night of enjoying event exclusive beers and food created specifically to pair with chapters of Kill Bill 2. Think Tex Mex meets Japanese.  Please arrive at 7pm for appetizers, drinks, and a conversation with the Calicraft brewers on the Mezzanine.  At 7:45, we'll head into the theater, along with course #2 for chapters 6, 7, and 8 of Kill Bill: Volume 2. Between chapters 8 and 9, we'll take an intermission for course #3. Following the film, we'll enjoy the dessert course. Each course will include both phenomenal food paired with signature Calicraft brews. The tentative menu is: Mezzanine Pre-Show:  Love Me Tender Baby Green Salad with Blood Oranges AND Buried Alive Fries Paired with: Red Wedding Rosé, Sparkling Ale with Zinfandel grapes Start of Movie:  Buds Microwave Popcorn, spiced Tex-Mex style Paired with: Sidewinder Session Ale, jalapeño and lemon infused Kolsch ale  Intermission:  5 Point Exploding Heart Rice Bowl  Paired with: ONE EYE-P-A, unfiltered IPA with El Dorado and Amarillo hops Post-Film Dessert:  Margarita Flan  Paired with: All is Right in the Jungle sparkling ale, made with star thistle honey  Don't miss this once in a lifetime event!

The Cali Coast label is green because it was inspired by the wild and forested Northern California coastline. We wanted a flavorful light beer that was clean like the coastal streams that run through it and crisp like offshore winds to the face. (at Mendocino, California)

THE TAPROOM IS NOW OPEN AT NOON ON FRIDAYS! NEW RELEASE FRIDAY: Cool Kidz Batch #2 Cool Kidz is one of the beers in our new experimental IPA series. This beer uses the "coolest" hops we can find, focusing on tropical and citrus aromas. At 7.2% ABV and 35 IBUs this beer is crushable. We ferment it dry and leave it unfiltered to emphasize the massive hop flavor and aroma. Batch 2 focuses on Citra and Mandarina Bavaria with Galaxy rounding out the dry hop. Same malt bill and hopping amount as batch 1, we are only changing the variety of hops. We are kegging the beer this Friday and then putting them on draft that same afternoon, so stop by for a couple pints and a growler! We are now open at noon on Fridays!

Way Back When Growing up outside of Chico, California, Blaine Landberg was surrounded by craft brew enthusiasts. In his family, Christmas wasn’t about presents. It was about who brought the coolest beer. That was usually Uncle Gary. To an underage nine-year-old, these bottles were hilarious. Hence, Blaine’s surprising answer to “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
