Slow Food Nation Beer Pavilion Preview
by @ 11:32 pm. Filed under News

Slow Food Nation is a celebration of American food and sustainability. It’s a part of the international Slow Food organization as well as a subsidiary of Slow Food USA. This is the first year for the event, and it’s taking place in San Francisco. There are four sessions in the Taste Pavilions tomorrow and Sunday. Earlier tonight, there was a press and media preview. The whole event was quite impressive, especially the Beer Pavilion put together by Beer Curator Dave McLean, owner of Magnolia, where they were serving 150 beers from 60 breweries on cask, draft and in bottles.

There are four bars like this one, made of beer bottles and the bar top is made from recycled beer bottle glass.
