Event Description:

You know by the end of January that you'll be feeling those winter blues -- and One Brick has a great way to socialize them right out the door! We've set up a one hour tour at the Gordon Biersch Brewing Company brewery with a free beer tasting from the cellar after the tour.

The tour begins with an overview of the brewing process, then the brewmaster will take us on a plant tour which includes a beer tasting from the GB cellar. After the tour, we'll reconvene for dinner at the Gordon Biersch Brewing Company restaurant, 2 miles away from the brewery.

You can either walk or drive through the brewery’s main gated entrance off Taylor Street. After parking, walk up the loading dock ramp, and we'll meet near the palm trees located at the top of the loading dock.

Note: You must be 21 to attend this event.

Bring some money, because after the tour ends at 7 pm, we'll proceed on to the Gordon Biersch Brewing Company restaurant for dinner and libations.
