East Bay All-Stars @ Jupiter

East Bay All-Stars

Come join us for a beer showdown at Jupiter on Shattuck Avenue in Berkeley, CA, USA! Don't miss out on this epic battle of the East Bay's finest! The East Bay is home to some of the best small breweries in the nation, producing world-class beers of all styles. Whether you like hoppy IPAs, biscuit-y Czech-style pilsners, bold imperial stouts, or fruit-forward sours, the Bay has the best of the best.
But on March 2nd, there can only be one.

The competition will be split into 4 brackets over two rounds of blind tastes. The four brackets will be over larger beer categories as follows:

• Gold Conference (lagers, golden ales, blondes, etc.)
• Hop Conference (pales, IPAs, hazys, etc.)
• Dark Conference (black lagers, porters, stouts, etc.)
• Sour Conference (sours!!)

For Round 1, each conference will host four beers, of which patrons will choose their favorite in each group.

Once all the Round 1 votes are tallied, the non-winning beers will be revealed, with the winning beers announced simply by number and not by brewery (the mystery is all part of the fun~!). In Round 2 these 4 drastically different beers will then compete through a second round of tasting to determine the East Bay favorite!

Of course, this is a blind taste test! While the true beer connoisseurs might be able to recognize some of the beers, please don't spoil the fun!

Participating breweries will be:

• Altamont
• East Brother
• Trumer
• Headlands
• Line 51
• Alameda
• Jupiter
• Fieldwork
• Drake's
• Oakland United
• Brix Factory
• Ghost Town
• Del Cielo
• Epidemic
• Morgan Territory
• Almanac
  

Round 1: Try a taster pour of all16 beers available. Tasting will happen from 2pm - 3:45pm .

Once you've tried all the beers in Round 1, please select ONE BEER PER CATEGORY that you feel truly embodies the best of what the bay has to offer and turn in your voting card under the redwood tree. Last call for voting will be 3:45 PM, although we'll walk around and make sure everyone gets a chance to vote.

Around 4pm, the winner of Round 1 will be announced, only revealing the breweries and beers of the beers knocked out of the competition.

Round 2: Enjoy additional taster pours of the remaining 4 beers.

Out of these beers you'll vote for the people's choice and winner of the East Bay All-Stars! Choose wisely.

Last call for voting will be 5:15pm, after which the winner will be announced and you'll be free to get an additional 10oz pour of any beer you want!

Happy sipping and may the best beer win!

Must be 21 years old or over to purchase a ticket and participate.
