A board game about brewing beer


BREWMASTER GAME
If you appreciate good beer, you'll love BrewMaster: The Craft Beer Game.
Using mechanics similar to rummy, players combine cards to brew six beer styles including ale, stout and Belgian. In doing so players will use some of the 90 cards representing real beer ingredients.

After brewing beer players place chips (representing crowds) onto the laminatedgame board. As the game continues players try to brew better beer and draw crowds away from other players. 
The game is influenced heavily by event cards, which players draw after brewing beer. The event deck represents some of the real triumphs and tragedies that have taken place in the microbrewery world. Watch out for the green scrubie card, which will cause you to lose a turn because you have to take apart your heat exchanger to find it. The event deck also contains beer festivals and the dreaded Big Breweries card.
The player with the most beer festival trophies and crowd markers wins the game. The game is great for two to five players and generally takes less than an hour to play.

No beer knowledge is necessary, as this is not a trivia or drinking game. Indeed it is the perfect game for settings involving beer and non-beer fans alike.
As brewers, beer fans and others have noted, the game captures the fun and excitement of brewing. It makes the perfect gift for yourself or the beer lover in your life!
COMPONENTS
* Official rulebook
* 75 ingredient cards
* 15 event cards
* One die
* An 11" x 17" laminated game board
* 40 crowd chips
* 7 beer festival trophies

Stumblefoot Brewing Co. is setting out to make the best beer we can using the finest ingredients available. We want our beer to be an artisan experience of local flavor. 

Stumblefoot Brewery is the latest new brewery in San Diego's North County located in San Marcos, CA. Our brewery was named as one the "Rookies of the Year" by UT San Diego's Peter Rowe in SD International Beer Fest: six lessons article and "took medals in their first year, marking them as up-and-comers, well worth keeping an eye on".  Keep an eye on us and we will keep a cold beer for you. 

As we created this project and learned how to put our brewery together the name Stumblefoot came to us. I have been asked many times how and where I came up with the name for our brewery so I decided to come up with a definition that incorporates the essence of our learning experience: 

Stumblefoot – \’stəm • bəl • fut\ (noun) 
1) The art and science of gaining new knowledge through the happenstance of interesting encounters. Fortune favors the prepared.

Getting to Know Your Brewery

The original manufacturing facility known as San Diego Brewing Company® opened in 1896 with much fanfare. A. E. Horton, the father of San Diego, referred to the Brewery as the most important industrial enterprise since he founded the town. It was the largest manufacturing enterprise in the county.

The brew house held a 25 horse power engine which operated the elevator, barley mill, mash tun and other apparatus. The mash tun could easily give shelter to twenty five men! The brewery’s fermenting cellar was filled with great tanks full of amber fluid, foaming and sparkling. The capacity of the plant was 75,000 barrels.

San Diego Brewing Company® delivered their product to all parts of the city and county in bottles or in barrels. Their beers were said to “sparkle like nectar”. Sadly the company was removed from 32nd Street by the Navy in 1942 and replaced by a base for the Pacific Fleet.
Today the new San Diego Brewing Company® hopes to carry on the tradition that was started so long ago. Along with an assortment of fresh beers brewed on the premises, San Diego Brewing Company® offers up to fifty taps of beer every day, providing a brew to satisfy each and everyone.
