State Fair Flair

State Fair Flair

We would like to extend our congratulations to some of our local businesses for their exceptional achievements at the California State Fair. Notably, Dying Breed Brewing in Oakdale received Gold for their Wanted Red or Alive and Imperial Red Ale, and also took home 2 Silver and a Bronze ribbon, an impressive feat! Additionally, Morgan Territory, Tracy, won Silver for their Super Bloom Kölsch along with a couple of Bronze, and Dustbowl Turlock, received a well-deserved bronze for their Therapist Imperial IPA. We must also highlight Sciabica Olive Oil Modesto, who won Best of Show for Flavored Olive Oil for their Co-Milled Basil, showcasing their outstanding quality. We want to congratulate all who participated in the competition and apologize if we missed anyone from the 209 area, but great job to all!
