PROGRAM SPONSORSHIPS
The San Diego Beer News Awards have grown into the biggest night of the year for the local brewing industry and its fans. Held at different breweries each year, it’s a star-studded awards show featuring owners, brewers and staffers from local breweries, media, suppliers and members of the community, all coming together to recognize the exceptional beers, venues and people that make San Diego’s craft-beer scene so special. It’s a mammoth undertaking made possible by banner sponsor Yakima Chief Hops and as dozens of categorical sponsors that we count on to make this event happen. The 2024 San Diego Beer News Awards will take place the evening of Tuesday, March 26 at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station. Email us if you would like to discuss being a sponsor.
Each summer, San Diego Beer News works with amateur brewers, homebrew clubs and local brewing companies to present its Homebrew Summer program, in which homebrewers are matched with professionals from the craft-beer industry so their beer recipes can be produced and tapped on a commercial scale. To date, 36 San Diego County breweries have taken part, resulting in the brewing of a whopping 50 pro-am ales and lagers running the stylist gamut. We are actively looking for a sponsor to help keep this beloved, meaningful educational and community-building program going into its fourth year. Email us if you would like to discuss being a sponsor.
