25th Anniversary Doppelbock

9.5% AlcBV • 55 SRM • 13 IBU

Karl Straus 25th Anniversary Doppelbock

About the Beer:
25 years in the brewing industry. It takes a pair. A pair of guys who know how to build a brewery with character. For such a momentous anniversary, we needed to go all out. Our robust Doppelbock started out as a seriously rich, malty lager with deep toffee flavors and a plum-like fruit character. Kicking it up a notch, we aged it in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year, adding layers of vanilla, toasted oak, and a warm lingering finish.

Whether you drink it now or let it age, enjoy a beer with as much soul as the brewery that created it. Cheers to our first 25 years, and the next 25 to come.

SDBC Sunday Ride

San Diego Bicycle Club

 

SDBC is hosting an ongoing Sunday ride leaving from UC Cyclery at 8:30 a.m. Once or twice a month we may alter the route, ride longer, or possibly leave from another location. Make sure to check SDBC Weekly online as any change will be posted.

An SDBC ride leader will lead the ride and participants are expected to:

  • Bring emergency contact information
  • Be familiar with group riding skills
  • Be able to maintain a D1 pace–17 mph average
  • Adhere to safe riding habits
  • Assist in keeping group together

Camaraderie is key! The base ride is 40 miles and arrives in Solana Beach at our sponsor, Java Depot, at 11:00 a.m. It is not a no-drop ride but we will assist in incidents as needed.

Routes will contain hills, with regrouping at the tops, faster sections with cornering and descents, and at least one water stop before coffee shop. It will be challenging, but doable & fun—like a faster version of our D2 Ride.

Arrive at 8:15 for announcements, bring 2 bottles of fluid, and be ready to roll at 8:30.

A group pic taken near ride’s end will be sent to you with a ride write-up. We look forward to seeing you.

A Note On Pricing
The clothing committee worked very hard in negotiating prices with Pactimo. Despite almost across-the-board price increases on garments, we're keeping the prices of many popular items the same as last year. In cases where we have raised prices, we have kept the increase as small as possible.

Other Items Of Interest


The following items are not sponsored or endorsed by SDBC but may be of interest to the general membership.

Racers and Volunteers Needed for Boulevard Road Race

The Boulevard Road Race is this Saturday, February 1st.

The UCSD Cycling Team is proud to announce the 2014 Boulevard Road Race. This is the largest and most successful race in the Western Collegiate Cycling Conference and also one of the largest in the entire country. The proceeds from this race almost entirely fund our race season and allow us to foster the talent of many collegiate cyclists.

We request that volunteers please notify Drew Lawyer (this years race director) at boulevardroadrace@gmail.com Remember that by volunteering, you are not just helping to make Boulevard run smoothly but are also giving back to the community by making a significant contribution to the UCSD Cycling Team's season and continued success.

If you plan to also race Boulevard, that is fantastic, and we are will accommodate that in your volunteer schedule so that you can do both. We will need volunteers at all times of the day, but the heaviest demand is in the early morning and morning while the collegiate fields are racing and many of our team mates will be kicking off their season.
Thanks
