  • Annual Mac-Off Contest!

    It’s time again: the Annual Bears San Diego Mac Off contest. Bring an appetite and your Lactaid if you have an intolerance, because we’ve got a lineup brewing this year. If you think you have a Mac-n-Cheese recipe worthy of the title, then join us. Entering the contest is free; just bring enough of your cheesy goodness for 20 people or more.

    Judging the Cheesiest is for anyone who wants to try it out. We bring the spoon savers and sample bowls, with larger ones available once people have had their chance to try them all. Judging is $7, with proceeds going to the Bears San Diego Titleholders Travel Funds and Special Delivery. We do take tap-enabled credit cards, Venmo, and PayPal.

    Prizes for the winners and runners-up will be presented at the end of the contest. The Brass Rail is awesome enough to host us this year, so tip your bartenders accordingly!
