Sacramento Beer Week is back for its 16th year, and it’s brewing up a storm of excitement from April 24 to May 3. This annual celebration showcases the region’s vibrant craft beer scene, bringing together local breweries, taprooms, and restaurants for ten glorious days of fun. David Weiss, president of the Sacramento Area Brewers Guild, notes that the event has expanded tremendously, evolving from its humble one-week beginnings into a full-blown event dedicated to honoring all things craft beer.
Mark your calendars for a series of events that promise to tantalize beer lovers of all stripes. Expect special releases like the Y2K IPA from Blue Note Brewing Company, an array of competitions, and unique experiences like the Brewers Olympics and trivia nights. Touchstone Brewery is stepping up with daily activities including a Summer Music Series and a fun-filled drag show, proving that there’s truly something for everyone.
New Helvetia Brewing Company is also on board, introducing a variety of events such as a speed dating night and trivia focused on everyone’s favorite galaxies far, far away. With plenty of non-alcoholic options available, even those who prefer to sit out on the beers can join in the community spirit. Sacramento Beer Week is shaping up to be the ultimate reason to grab your friends, support local businesses, and revel in the good vibes. After all, community is key, and what better way to cultivate it than over a cold, refreshing beer?
