Have you ever wanted to be a superhero? One of your own creation... or maybe even Batman!? Well now is our chance! Heroes Brew Fest is the superhero PoW! craft beer BAnG! combo fans of San Diego have been waiting for. San Diego celebrates the best craft beer in the industry with over 70 craft breweries calling SD home. San Diego has also been home to Comic-Con - the country’s longest continuously run comics and popular art convention, taking place for over 40 years. In addition to comics and craft beer, San Diego is also known as having a huge military population, which is why the Wounded Warrior Project is the non-profit beneficiary for Hero's Brew.

Tickets to the Heroes Brew Fest are currently $50 for general admission and $60 for VIP. VIP tickets include an extra hour of indulgence (starting at 3pm rather than 4pm), and will offer specialty brews not available during regular admission. Both tickets come with unlimited beer tasters. Designated driver tickets are also available for $20. No Comic-Con badge is needed for admission. Get your tickets online at heroesbrewfest.com/register.

The Heroes Brew Fest brings a fun and energetic twist to the typical beer tasting event. By incorporating a superhero theme and encouraging attendees to come as their favorite costumed crusader or crusader of their own creation (not required), this is a one-of-a-kind beer event in a city inundated with beer festivals, creating a new way for San Diegans and Comic-Con attendees to enjoy one of America's favorite events—craft beer tasting!

Craft breweries pouring at the Heroes Brew Fest include Ballast Point, Green Flash, Coronado, Mission, The Lost Abbey, Iron Fist, Culture, Groundswell, Hess, BNS, La Jolla Brewing Company, Amplified Ale Works, Pacific Beach Alehouse, URBN St. Brewing and many more. In addition to great craft beer, Heroes Brew Fest also features local bands performing from a solar powered stage, including San Diego's own Vokab Kompany, as well as games and a 4 category costume contest for various prizes to complete the fun festival experience. So dust off your favorite superhero costume, create your own, or just come to enjoy the craft beer, music and people watching Heroes Brew Craft Beer Festival has to offer.
