CCOF's 5th Annual Organic Beer and Wine Tasting
Friday, October 29, 2010
4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
San Francisco, CA
Join CCOF for the 5th Annual Organic Beer and Wine Tasting at the Ferry Building in San Francisco to sample a wide variety of fine beverages – all by producers certified organic by CCOF – and talk directly to the vintners, and brewers. The event begins at 4:00 p.m. and runs until 8:00 p.m.
Every year more organic winemakers and brewers are winning praise and awards for the beverages they produce and CCOF, one of the nation’s largest and oldest organic certifying agencies, is pleased to certify some of the best. Since 2006, the Organic Beer & Wine Tasting at the Ferry Building has gathered these celebrated wines and brews from across the state.
In addition to the wide selection of beverages to sample, attendees will have the chance to bid in a Silent Auction on items donated by the vendors. Last year’s auction items included bottles of the vintners’ best wines, gift boxes of beer, and brewery and winery tours.
