Photographic evidence: Intelligentsia Barista Competition

Are you sure you're not supposed to be at the World Beard and Moustache Comp?

Intelligentsia sponsored the Western Regional Barista Competition Downtown this weekend. Throwing down in full throttle, competitors were judged on espressos, cappuccinos and their signature drinks (four of each to be made in 15 minutes). Nick Griffith, Devin Pedde and Ryan Wilbur (all from Intelligentsia, L.A.) earned the top three seats, and will head to Portland for the finals March 5-8.
