Changing Of The Barrels’ 31st Anniversary Celebration

February 2, 1989 marks the first day Karl Strauss Brewing opened doors on Columbia St. in Downtown San Diego and introduced the city to craft beer. To honor the occasion, you are invited to join us at the brewery for the debut of the 31st Anniversary Barrel Aged Scotch Ale, as well as a chance to taste the 32nd Anniversary brew before it spends a year in barrels.
