Blind Lady Ale House
Blind Lady Ale House will be open until 1 am and feature many holiday beers, most of which will be gone in the new year. Dupont Avec Les Bon Voeux, Craftsman Holiday Ale, Sierra Celebration, Nogne (Barren Isle) Holiday Ale, Anchor Our Special Ale and Scaldis Noel are some of the selections. For the moment, still available are Dogfish Head Midas Touch, Unibroue Blanche Des Chambly, Alesmith Speedway Stout, Hitachino Nest White (on Tap!) Ballast Sculpin and Victory at Sea and Allagash White. And think about toasting the New Year with a bottle of Russian River Temptation! It has a cork, after all.
Blind Lady Ale House will also offer special food for New Years' Eve. How do oysters on the half shell with yuzu and grapefruit mignonette sound? Or short ribs braised in Chimay with creamy polenta, root vegetables and gremolata? And then, Rachel is making a chocolate pretzel cake with caramel sauce and cream. All will have beer pairings available. Plus their usual delicious pizzas, salads, house-made charcuterie will be offered.

The Toronado
The Toronado will be, for all intents and purposes, a Pizza Port location for a day. Jeff, Brandon, Noah, Yiga, Ignacio and the crew have assembled 50 kegs and 3 casks of Pizza Port beer for Toronado to serve on the 31st. It is the largest collection of Pizza Port beers ever assembled under one roof! IPA's, Stouts, Belgians, Strong Ales, Brown Ales, German styles will be available. Pizza Port won the coveted “Large Brewpub of the Year” award at last Fall's Great American Beer Festival, and took home a slew of medals in the process.
In addition to all the beer, Pizza Port owner Vince Marsaglia will be parking the Port pizza trailer in front of the bar and we'll be serving Pizza Port's famous pizza all afternoon and into the night! Plus, the lovely ladies from Port Carlsbad have graciously offered to bartend for the night!
The Toronado will close at midnight. They will, however, be observing the Mountain Standard Time New Year at 11:00pm with an Underberg toast. So in addition to the 11pm, shout, you can celebrate our (PST) New Year's at one of North Park's other fine drinking establishments, or in any way that you choose.
The beers will be hooked up and ready to go when Toronado opens at 11:30 am on Thursday morning so go check them out. It'll be going on all day and night. They'll be serving their usual food menu until about 3 pm or so and then hand the reins over to Vince and his Pizza Port crew. It's going to be a blast.

The Linkery
The Linkery will be open New Year's Eve through midnite: no prix fixe menu or anything like that, just what they always do with a full selection of pastured meat dishes, veggie dishes, wine and craft beer. That's their kind of special occasion celebration. If you're into it, please join them, they’d love to have you.
