Prepare your tastebuds, the 16th Annual Bay Area Firkin Fest is happening November 18th from 11:30am-4pm! It's been a decade and a half of ridiculously awesome cask-conditioned beer and just like last year, we're celebrating absurdity.

We've reached out to over 20 of our favorite breweries to show us what they think the "state of the firkin" is. They're crafting the most outlandish, original and thoroughly "Berkeley" beers they possible can, and you get to judge their work. These brews have never seen the light of day before, and probably never will again!

Proceeds of this event benefit the Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation, a cause that needs our support now more than ever. Drink for a good cause and educate yourself on how you can help the victims of fires.

Tickets on sale at https://firkinfest2018.eventbrite.com! Pre-sale package includes UNLIMITED tastings of all competing beers, voting token and a signature glass to take home. Winner will be chosen by YOU so come experience the wacky world of firkins and help us pick the best brew!

Must be 21+ to drink, families with well-behaved children are welcome. We love your pets but please leave them at home.
