See what\u2019s on tap during San Diego Beer Week<\/strong><\/p>\n

Por Kai Oliver-Kurtin<\/p>\n

The seventh annual San Diego Beer Week (SDBW) is set for Nov. 6 \u2013 15 and is expected to be the biggest celebration yet.<\/p>\n

Produced by the San Diego Brewers Guild, the weeklong beer extravaganza includes more than 500 events taking place in San Diego County within the span of 10 days.<\/p>\n

The guild represents all 115 breweries in San Diego, with another 40 currently in development. It\u2019s the largest guild within any region of the U.S., and according to Kevin Hopkins, SDBG president, about two new breweries open every week in California (based on applications filed).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe represent a large number of well-known, high-caliber breweries that are distributed not only throughout the U.S., but internationally as well,\u201d Hopkins said.<\/p>\n

Kicking off SDBW is the VIP Brewer Takeover on Nov. 6 from 6 \u2013 9 p.m., featuring rare specialty beers, barrel-aged brews and unlimited food samples \u2014 with many of the major players in the craft beer industry expected to be in attendance.<\/p>\n

The following day from 2 \u2013 5 p.m., SDBW continues on Broadway Pier with even more breweries during the Guild Festival. Selling out for the first time last year, the Guild Festival draws more than 3,000 people to enjoy craft beer, live music, food for purchase, and a ceremonial tapping of the cask.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe craft beer industry is really burgeoning across the U.S.,\u201d Hopkins said. \u201cAs we continue to grow toward 20 percent of the market share, I think it\u2019s just amazing where we\u2019ve come in 25 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The other major event is The Beer Garden, the official SDBW closing ceremony held on Nov. 15 from noon \u2013 3 p.m. at The Lodge at Torrey Pines. The Beer Garden will feature food and beer pairings from 12 chefs and 24 breweries. Since interest is high but space is limited, breweries had to enter a lottery system to participate in the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re extremely proud to represent $600 million worth of impact to the local area, bringing business to the hotels and restaurants in and around the Downtown San Diego area,\u201d Hopkins said.<\/p>\n

The SDBG establishes the dates and framework for SDBW, but brewers and retailers schedule their own events throughout the week. All events are listed on the SDBW website at sdbw.org\/schedule.<\/p>\n
