Tell me when it's backWhat it was like
Forty years of arguing that this is America's craft beer capital comes due for nine days in June, when a few dozen separate rooms quietly start behaving like a single organism.
That is the difference between this and a beer festival. There is no field with tents in it. Taprooms, breweries, bars, and restaurants across North Park, Barrio Logan, Little Italy, and East Village each throw their own thing at once — tastings, pairings, brewer meet-and-greets — and the collaborations that fall out of it are what people still talk about years later. Two brewers happen to be standing at the same bar, and the result is a limited release that exists for nine days and then never again. You can cross the city all week and never repeat a pour.
The full schedule lives on the official San Diego Craft Beer Week site. Many tastings are free with purchase; ticketed events vary by venue.
Start at whatever taproom is closest to your house and follow the beer from there. Bring the friend who thinks they already know this city.
