Trade your typical brewery crawl for a night at the museum! Brewsology Beer Fest is taking over the California Science Center on Saturday, August 1, 2026. They’re transforming the beloved science museum into a one-night-only celebration of craft beer, cider, and hands-on discovery.

Designed as the grown-up version of a middle school field trip, the after-hours event invites guests to wander through museum exhibits while sampling beers from dozens of local and regional craft breweries and cideries.

Along the way, attendees can meet brewery representatives, catch live science demonstrations, and experience the California Science Center in a completely different light.
