After a gruelling drive up from Bakersfield, where we crawled through bad traffic all the way from below Sacramento, we finally pulled into Auburn and continued on to the venue for our first well-anticipated pint, the Knee Deep Brewery. It's a big barn of a place located in an industrial park; but in Auburn that means an industrial park surrounded by greenery and scenic views. Inside the huge tasting room, TV screens listed a wealth of current selections of beers, especially plenty of IPAs. Unfortunately there was no way to distinguish between all of the IPAs or the other styles by, perhaps, mentioning anything like hops, malts, tasting notes, etc. The only information listed with each beer was its IBU bitterness units. So it was pretty much a lottery what we ordered. |
