The milestone event will take place on Saturday, July 29, from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. at their Lane Avenue brewery in Eastlake.
Open to the public and free to attend, the outdoor festivities will feature an array of enticing offerings. Tijuana's renowned eatery, Tortas WashMobile, helmed by the talented Chef Pedro Fuentes, will be on-site, providing attendees with a delectable selection of dishes. Chef Fuentes, who began his residency at NOVO Brazil Brewing Company earlier this year, is crafting an exclusive torta in honor of the brewery's anniversary. This mouthwatering creation will feature Mexican skirt steak, fresh vegetables, queso panela fundido, and chipotle, promising a tantalizing culinary experience.
Joining the festivities will be the celebrated Latin band Cuband4ever, known for their energetic performances at Café Sevilla in the Gaslamp Quarter of downtown San Diego. Their vibrant music will set the stage for an evening of dancing and revelry.
While adults indulge in the flavorful offerings and live music, the younger attendees will have their own excitement to enjoy. A Bouncy Castle and cornhole games will keep the kids entertained throughout the event, ensuring a memorable experience for the entire family.
Sports enthusiasts need not worry about missing out on any action. The brewery's impressive 15-foot LED screen will broadcast the Padres game against the Texas Rangers, starting at 5:40 p.m. This fantastic feature allows attendees to enjoy their favorite hometown teams while reveling in the lively atmosphere.
Reflecting on the incredible journey of NOVO Brazil Brewing Company, founder Tiago Carneiro expressed his gratitude, stating, "While creating award-winning beer is at the heart of what we do, we take the most pride in serving as an all-ages community gathering point for residents of the South Bay and beyond." Carneiro further added, "It has been an incredible nine years, and I couldn't be happier when I see hundreds, if not thousands, come together at our events to drink great beer, eat great food, dance the night away, and watch our hometown teams on the big screen TVs."
NOVO Brazil Brewing Company currently operates three locations in the South Bay region, including Imperial Beach, situated on the southern edge of San Diego Bay, and in the Otay Ranch Town Center. Excitingly, a fourth location is slated to open in late 2023 at Westfield Mission Valley, further expanding its reach and impact within the community.
