but we did stop at Indian Wells Brewery on the way back. We got a 6-pack variety and man, so far each one has been great!

Ya, Indian Wells has some great brews! They brew for a lot of smaller "breweries" in the LA area. They will actually put your own label on their stuff for a very reasonable fee...(My buddy has done this a couple of times for bbq's and other events). But ya, nothing like a nice brewery in the middle of the desert. Do they still have a tasting room or did they stop doing that ?

Do they still have a tasting room or did they stop doing that ?

Tasting room is still there, but was closed when we visited so we just purchased at the restaurant next door.

You know a lot of people couldnt pull off the sweats tucked in to the socks look, but you, you really pull that outfit together.

Great TR. I am 42 and I have been going up to Coyote since I was 6 months old, I cant think of a single Summer that I have not made it up there, even a few Winters:sombrero: The place grows on you. Again, great TR.
