The North Shore’s legacy with craft brewing started with Horseshoe Bay Brewery in 1982. That legacy continues today with an enviable selection of award-winning breweries, distilleries, a cidery and a winery.
Starting off with a launch party at the Pipe Shop on Nov. 2, North Shore Craft Beer Week (weeks?) will carry on until Nov. 14. Part of the proceeds from the launch party will go to North Shore Rescue, according to a statement.
This year’s celebration of craft adult beverages features a long list of events. Those include an open house at Bridge Brewing on Nov. 5, a trivia night at Windfall Cider & Co. on Nov. 8 and a Viking Day at Braggot Brewing on Nov. 11, complete with keg carrying, ax throwing and stein holding. A full schedule can be found on the event website.
