From April 6, 2013 to January 20, 2014, (plenty of time even for procrastinators) You can head to a museum to learn a bit about the history of craft beer in San Diego.
The exhibit is entiteld Bottled & Kegged: San Diego’s Craft Brew Culture. It is subtitled with the rather grandiose claim of “How San Diego became a nationwide leader in craft beer.” They certainly are and were on the vanguard but I would have phrased that a little more defrentially.
“Beginning with the region’s earliest inhabitants to the present day, the exhibit highlights events and individuals who built a brewing industry where once there was none, kept an industry alive during Prohibition, and managed to bring back what, at one time, was one of the region’s most robust enterprises.The exhibit features many hands-on interactive elements that help explain: the brewing process, how San Diego County brewers achieve such expansive flavor profiles, and the science behind matching beers with food.Bottled & Kegged has components that speaks to audiences of all ages and will educate even the most avid craft beer lover.”
