Hessfest Celebrates 7 Years Of Great Beers (With Unlimited Samples)!
Saturday, July 29th is a GREAT day! It’s the day of Mike Hess Brewing’s 7th anniversary celebration and charity fundraiser (better known as HESSFEST)!
For Hessfest 7, San Diego CityBeat is helping organize a rocking party on Grim Ave by our North Park Brewery.
Over 20 breweries will be in attendance, and there will be live music, souvenir glasses, food vendors, and did we mention unlimited beer samples?!

This year’s event will benefit two great charities: Next Step Service Dogs and the YMCA of San Diego County.
MHB will be donating net proceeds from the event to these two fantastic organizations. Your ticket purchases help them write this check!
