West Coaster is giving away two VIP tickets to the inaugural California Craft Beer Summit. Enter to win a full two-day access to the Expo Hall, a choice of several craft educational sessions, a ticket to the Saturday Brewers Showcase Festival AND a ticket to the Friday evening invitation-only Brewers Reception. This gives you a full weekend of education and fun. This package is valued at $578! Enter now by leaving a comment below (winners will be chosen by raffle).

Organized by the California Craft Brewers Association, the California Craft Beer Summit will take place September 11-12 in Sacramento, CA. Over the two day event, learn everything from how to start a brewery to how to age beers at home, host your own tasting and pair the right food with the right beer. Wander around an exciting Expo Hall to share a pint with your favorite brewer, learn what goes into your beer from local hop farmers, watch (and taste) award winning chefs pair culinary art with your favorite beers and experience the culture and community of California’s craft beer industry.

On Saturday afternoon, after two days of learning and tasting California’s craft beer, join us for the first and largest California-only craft beer festival, the California Craft Brewers Showcase! More than 150 California brewerieswill be arranged geographically in front of the Capitol. Wander through the microbreweries of Northern California, sample the award winning beers from San Diego and taste the best beers from all the breweries in between.

Learn what you’re drinking. Taste what California is brewing.

PLUS:
Meet and talk to California’s leading brewers.

Speakers Include:
Ken Grossman, Sierra Nevada
Greg Koch, Stone Brewing Co.
Vinnie Cilurzo, Russian River
& Many More

Figure out how to open your own brewery or the 101 of brewing your own beer. Taste new beers from award winning breweries – brewed just for the weekend! Learn everything there is to know about the history of craft beer, how to store, serve and pair it at home and impress your friends with some celebrity brewer name drops. And finally, taste great food and listen to great music – the best things to do while tasting a beer.
