If she can fake a toothache or something and go to a doctor I'd highly recommend Vicodin. Took them recently for bad sciatica and I could jump up and down on the bad leg within 60 minutes:)

With your love of sours what about Russian River (local to SF)? Or Lost Abbey (also Californian)?

I really liked the New Belgium Trippel. Might just be memories, but i remember it being a great beer:

Anything from The Bruery. They're in San Diego but stone distribute their stuff to SF apparently.

Re: sour beers - just to add to the beers to get - anything by Almanac. Had two of these recently (one maybe a month ago), another along side a russian river consecration & a Jester King (JK thanks to Matt Dick) & the almanac was on par if not slightly better than the russian river (imo). Unreal beers!
