It’s been well over four years since BeerAdvocate last hosted its Extreme Beer Fest on the West Coast. It was back in December 2017 when the online beer website hosted Extreme Beer Fest – Los Angeles to the delight of many West Coasters.
Now the team at BeerAdvocate and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery are back at it for a two-day fest, 2022 Extreme Beer Fest – Bay Area. This fest will take place at The Craneway Pavilion located on the San Francisco Bay in Richmond, California on Friday, August 26 and Saturday, August 27.
Just like other Extreme Beer Fest’s, this one will once again celebrate brewers who push the boundaries of brewing for a session of some of the finest craft beer in the land. We really enjoyed our visit to the LA edition that took place over four years ago and are looking forward to this next one!
Tickets are now on-sale for each of the three tasting sessions at $75 for General Admission or $100 for Early Access. Each ticket includes all beer samples; enjoy a selection of 150+ extreme beers from 50+ brewers. Tickets can be purchased here: https://www.beeradvocate.com/extreme/.
Session One = Aug 26, 6-9:30pm
Session Two = Aug 27, 12-3:30pm
Session Three = Aug 27, 6-9:30pm
*Early Access = 30 mins before General + Meet and greet with Sam Calagione & Todd Alström, plus a chance to try a very special beer, at the Dogfish Head booth
