Karl Strauss Brews Up Big Events for 4th Annual San Diego Beer Week
San Diego, CA – October 24, 2012– Hot off a recent expansion into Northern California, Karl Strauss isn’t losing any momentum as it rolls into the 4th Annual San Diego Beer Week. The company is hosting a number of events including the popular BYOB Brunch, Brew Food Beer Tasting and Book Signing, and two special Cask Nights. Karl Strauss is also working with accounts to host pint nights, beer dinners, and tap takeovers, as well as pouring a diverse line-up of beers at both of the San Diego Brewers Guild capstone events.
“We’ve been so busy expanding this summer and keeping up with demand, that we’re really looking forward to getting out during Beer Week, ,” says Paul Segura, Karl Strauss Brewmaster. “This is a cool opportunity for us to engage with our fans, share our beers, and introduce ourselves to some people who might not know us that well.”
In addition to more than 40 events over ten days, Karl Strauss has brewed a commemorative San Diego Beer Week Peanut Butter Cup Porter—an idea that originated at last year’s BYOB event. The innovative brew is rich with chocolate and toffee notes and finishes with a creamy peanut-butter flavor. “We wanted it to taste like drinking a peanut butter cup” says Segura. “The porter has a chocolate complexity that makes it a natural fit with the peanut butter. We think people will dig this.” The SDBW Peanut Butter Cup Porter will be on tap at the Guild Festival and several other events around town.
