America's craft beer movement began in the San Francisco Bay Area. Northern California alone has more than most states and enjoys an unrivaled reputation for the quality and diversity of its craft beer. SF BEER WEEK is a ten-day celebration of that legacy, showcasing the Bay Area's brewing heritage with as many as 150 events. The week will again be anchored by the Bistro Double IPA Festival, the Toronado Barleywine Festival and will end with a bang at the Celebrator's Best of the West Beer Fest. In between there will be beer dinners, cheese and beer pairing events, other gourmet food events savoring world-class cuisine, meet the brewer evenings, homebrewing demonstrations, music, films, and even a museum exhibition exploring the history of Bay Area brewing, from Monterey to Sacramento and beyond.

Be a private eye while celebrating the Year of the Tiger at the annual Chinese New Year Treasure Hunt, a unique urban sleuthing adventure played on the streets of Chinatown, North Beach, and Telegraph Hill on the night of the annual Chinese New Year Parade Saturday, February 7, 2009. The Hunt begins at 4:30pm (rain or shine) (check in at 3:30) in Justin Herman Plaza, located at the foot of Market St. at the Embarcadero (behind the Hyatt Regency Hotel) and ends at 9pm. Hundreds of amateur sleuths (grouped into teams or two or more) will explore obscure alleys and hidden lanes solving clues. Cities tell rich stories in their streets, and the Hunt is chance to see San Francisco in an entirely new way, and discover the hidden treasures most people commonly overlook in their destination-focused travels. Treasure hunting teams have 4 hours to solve 16 clues that lead to obscure landmarks, forgotten architectural delights and vestiges of San Francisco's colorful past. The Treasure Hunt winds it way through the annual Chinese New Year Parade, with its dancing dragons, popping firecrackers, and half a million spectators, adding a colorful, raucous and exciting backdrop to the Hunt. Players can come with a team already organized, or can join like-minded hunters at the event; it's a great way to make new friends.
