From San Diego Brewers Guild:
The Capital of Craft’s™ annual 10-day celebration of independent craft beer
will take place November 1st through 10th
WHAT:
This year’s San Diego Beer Week, presented by the San Diego Brewers Guild with Sycuan Casino
Resort, will bring together San Diego County’s more than 150 independent craft breweries for the 11th annual celebration of the region’s innovative brewing culture. The happening draws beer enthusiasts from around the United States and the world— as far as Japan, Australia and the United Kingdom. Craft beer has a longstanding and significant financial impact on the region. Last year, San Diego’s robust craft beer industry produced an impressive economic impact of approximately $1.2 billion, driving a total industry revenue of $848 million.
The 10-day event begins on Friday, November 1st and kicks off with a countywide virtual toast at 7:30 p.m. PST — fans can take part by sharing photos on social media using #SDBEER and #SDBW. The beer-centric festivities continue through Sunday, November 10th and consist of more than 500 special events held at participating breweries, tasting rooms, bars and restaurants around the county.
