Get a load of this: 36 breweries and four cideries; a fine art exhibition; more than 40 original art pieces created by brewers and reps available for auction; unlimited 4-ounce beer/cider tastings and food pairings. We could stop there, and you’d pretty much have a slam-dunk event, but there’s more. Toss music by Jazcat into the mix. Want more? How about this? There will also be a silent auction for Ales for Autism, a charitable organization that raises funds for autism research and awareness. The fourth annual The Art of Beer, a celebration of craft beer and fine art, will be held at Sacramento’s McClellan Conference Center from 6 to 10 p.m. on Jan. 30, 2015. The list of participating breweries is a like a craft beer road trip under one roof, ranging from Petaluma, California’s Lagunitas to Fort Collins, Colorado’s New Belgium, to relative newcomer Oak Park Brewing Company from right here in Sacramento. Food pairings to various beers will be provided by Mikuni Sushi and Bar, The Pasta Queen, Passione Pizza, Blackbird Kitchen and others. General admission is $55, with other ticketing options available, which can be purchased through Artofbeerinvitational.com. For more information about Ales for Autism, go to Ales4autism.org.
