SAN DIEGO CRAFT BEER TOUR III
SATURDAY MARCH 22 – 10 AM to 5 PM. Join Hoffy Tours on this brewfest classic! We will visit the best of northern San Diego county’s craft breweries: The Lost Abbey, Stone Brew Company, Ballast Point, and the Green Flash. A picnic lunch and plenty of snacks will be provided to help you absorb any excess alcohol! Trivia games, German drinking songs and prizes will be given. Experience one of the best craft brewery regions in the nation without worrying about driving. Sign up on the Hoffy Tours website: www.hoffytours.com. DEADLINE is March 11.

This is the third Hoffy Craft Beer adventure and the tour has been “crafted” to provide brew lovers with good variety. The Belgian-style ales and great atmosphere of The Lost Abbey is a wonderful first stop. We will also enjoy a tour by one of the funniest beer guides (not that I know that many!) that I have ever seen. Ballast Point was also a crowd-pleaser. Its founders love fishing and they named their brews after their scaly friends – Yellowtail, Calico Amber, Big Eye IPA, Black Marlin Porter, Wahoo Wheat and Sculpin IPA. I added Green Flash Brewery last Fall. It’s a beautiful facility with a big tasting room and an impressive variety of ales, lagers, porters and stouts. On our way home, we’ll stop at the flagship of craft breweries: Stone Brew Company. We will fill our growlers and sample some Arrogant Bastard as stroll the beautiful beer garden. What a great way to educate your palate and enjoy some quality time with friends.
