Beer: The Brewer’s Guild
Fort Mason Center | Included with Taste Pavilions Ticket: $45 – 65 | Saturday, August 30; 11am – 3pm; 5pm – 9pm | Sunday, August 31; 11am – 3pm; 5pm – 9pm
A rotating series of IPAs, imperials, cask ales and other flagship beers from our country’s most creative brewers were on tap at the Beer Pavilion. Brewers standing in as bartenders served glasses of beer and talked to visitors about the brewing process, its agricultural origins and the network of associations that unite small brewers throughout the United States. These networks facilitate idea-sharing, foster local brewing communities and support independent breweries as they develop their personal styles and produce some genuinely delicious beer.
