Some of you might have taken advantage of last month's Thursday DrinkAbout bus which shuttled you, free of charge, to the various beer bars and restaurants up and down 30th Street. Well, this new monthly event has been tweaked a bit so here is the updated info for you. The "beer bus" will run again this Wednesday, January 20th from 7pm until about 11:30.

Here is how it will go down. Each month, 2 lovely buses (by Brewery Tours of San Diego) will cruise a loop, stopping repeatedly at eight different craft-beer bars and restaurants. You are free to hop on and hop off wherever and whenever you desire, and ride as many times as you want, at NO COST TO YOU!

For our part, we'll have the following beers on tap:
* Lost Abbey Red Barn Ale
* Lightning Elemental Pilsner
* Ballast Point Victory at Sea Imperial Coffee Porter
* Airdale Altitude Pale Ale
* Ballast Point Calico Amber
* Ballast Point Sculpin IPA ON CASK

Here are links to the participating beer establishments.

And here are some more details for you...
*Buses will start running at Starting at 7pm and go until around 11:30, or whenever the last bus has reached the end of it's route.
*There will be 2 buses running consecutively, with no freeways involved.
* Buses will run on a set schedule in both directions (see below), rather than stopping and waiting for passengers to come out of restaurants in response to a bell like last time.
* The route is a loop going southbound from Blind Lady Ale House in Normal Heights to Hamiltons Tavern in South Park, stopping at all stops except Ritual on the Southbound. Ritual will be the only Northbound stop, in order to keep the bus on the right side of the street.
