It is a horn-a-plenty at Alaro Craft Brewery on Capitol Avenue in Sacramento.

Family, health, friendship, and these four stouts we are thankful for this Thanksgiving. So hug the ones you love and toast the ones you miss.

Bob and Clarence, childhood friends, hang out in their hometown with some good and not-so-good imperial stouts.

Bob and his artiste brother-in-law Robert try out a 4-pack of milk stouts from Firestone, Electric, Belching Beaver and Left Hand before they finish off the day with a coffee offering from their host, 1850 Brewing Company in Bob's hometown and Robert's adopted hometown, Mariposa, California...it's halfway between Hornitos and Bootjack.

Glenn looks surprised as Bob gives him the evil eye as they work on new material should the creators of Portlandia decide to return for another season....oh and they differ somewhat dramatically on their opinions of the beers presented before them by the fine folks at Rogue Hall.  Photo by Michelle DeWeese Crim
