Saturday was the beginning of the 15th annural Toronado Barleywine Festival in San Francisco, California. With a total of 55 Barley Wines, it was wonderful day for beer in San Francisco, and the stellar weather made the experience all the more enjoyable.

The Toronado 2008 Barleywine Festival fills up quickly on opening day. It will last another eight days before ending next Sunday, February 24.
