The Nose Knows the Way to Sip in Julian

Julian's annual "Sip of Julian" proves that Julian is not just about apples!

Sip of Julian-July 28

On Saturday, July 28, 2018, the Julian Chamber of Commerce is hosting its 4th Annual ‘Sip of Julian’, providing proof that Julian is not just about apples and great pie. The ‘Sip’ features Julian’s growers and producers of wine, craft beer, mead (honey wine), craft cocktails, and delicious hard cider, offering up a sampling of their delicious hand-crafted specialties.

As in previous years, Sip of Julian runs from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., giving tasters time to enjoy their beverage-and-small-bite pairings while relaxing and enjoying the Julian experience.

Summer is a beautiful time in Julian and this event allows you to sample the region's fine crafted beverages, taste gourmet bites, and explore the backcountry. It's a perfect excuse to book a quaint room and make it a weekend adventure!

Julian is a historic goldmining community located in the San Diego County mountains at an elevation of 4200 feet. Quaint shops and restaurants, unique bed and breakfasts, hotels, and lodges all welcome visitors to enjoy a getaway in the country. The Sip of Julian is a great opportunity to spend a couple of nights in Julian and enjoy exploring the area the day before or after the event.
