SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON (July 18, 2022) – California Wild Ales, San Diego's Sour House, and the city's only all-barrel-aged American sour brewery, announced its fourth annual Comic-Con tap takeover. The brewery calls all space travelers, supervillains, gamers, Trekkies, Jedi, zombies, intergalactic bounty hunters, and more to stop by its Ocean Beach tasting room from July 21-24th for a Comic-Con-themed beer release and costume contest. This year's beers include some crowd favorites from previous year's tap takeovers and five new beers brewed specifically for Comic-Con 2022.
"We look forward to this weekend every summer," said Zack Brager, co-founder of California Wild Ales. "It's a fun way to release some small-batch and unique beers. This year we are excited to feature two of our dark sour ales made in collaboration with another local Ocean Beach business, Tapshack Craft Liquid. The first is Buzzed Lightyear, a cold brew beer and Shang Chai made with our homemade chai tea blend."
This year, California Wild Ales will continue its tradition of holding its annual Comic-Con costume contest. Customers are invited to come by the brewery or tag themselves on social media in their costumes to win Comic-Con swag. No purchase is necessary. There will be an on-site costume contest as well as an online contest. All photos will be posted to social media, and the winner with the most "likes" wins. To enter the online contest, tag your photo @californiawildales on Instagram or Facebook, or email photos to: info@californiawildales.com.
