An nice item in the San Francisco Chronicle’s Sipping News today reminded me that there’s only two days until the Celebrator Beer News’ 20th Anniversary Party.

This Sunday, toast the Celebrator at its Mardi Gras-themed 20th Anniversary Party, with more than 35 breweries pouring almost 200 beers – many of which were made especially for the occasion. Dixieland jazz and zydeco bands and plenty of Cajun and Creole food will also be on hand.

All profits will go to the California Small Brewers Association, a nonprofit advocacy group.

The event takes place from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Oakland Marriott City Center, 1001 Broadway (near 11th Street), Oakland.

Tickets cost $55, and for $80, VIP tickets will earn you admission an hour early and access to some special limited-production beers.

For tickets, call (800) 430-2337 or visit celebrator.com

You don’t want to miss what promises to be the party of the year. I’ll See you there!
