Friday night, Old Oakland’s Trappist Cafe threw open their doors to an eager crowd of brew enthusiasts. On tap are a wide selection of Belgian ales and some local goodies including beer by Linden Street Brewing. The cafe features more than 120 bottled choices and 15 rotating taps. A complete list of current beer offerings is on the Web site at thetrappist.com.

As for the aforementioned Linden Street Brewing, they’re making a beer called Urban People’s Common Lager out of an 1890’s warehouse west of Jack London Square at 95 Linden St. Anybody tried it? (I sampled some this weekend, but I don’t like beer, so my assessment is pretty useless…)
