Tacoma Beer Week is now fully underway. Below, I share just a few of the events that caught my eye. There are many more events that are not mentioned below. You can see the complete list of events and learn more about Tacoma Beer Week here. See our previous story for insights into this year’s collaboration projects and all the happenings.
For the past decade, Tacoma Beer Week (TBW) took place in August, a notoriously busy time of year in the Pacific Northwest. The organizers decided to move Tacoma Beer Week to March. The cavalcade of events runs through Sunday, March 9th.
