Scenes from SF Beer Week 2018 Media Preview Event

Ahead of SF Beer Week 2018 and the Opening Gala kickoff, Andrea and I had the very good fortune of being able to make it for the first time to the annual SF Beer Week media preview event hosted up in the city earlier this month.

Let’s just get right to the pics.

Held at ThirstyBear Organic Brewery, the event featured breweries and beers from select members of the SF Brewers Guild.

The event was simply superb.

We’re grateful for the wonderful opportunity to taste excellent beers, including from breweries whose offerings we weren’t quite familiar with, as well as get to meet and learn a bit more about the folks who make them.

Andrea and I are determined to visit more of these awesome breweries that reside throughout San Francisco and the East Bay.

And, of course, we really looking forward to the upcoming Opening Gala.

Cheers! Prost! Gunbae!
