The winning beer from Karl Strauss Brewing Company's annual homebrew contest will be on tap today, starting at 5 p.m., at all of Karl Strauss' brewery restaurants and their new main tasting room. Tim Taylor, a home brewer from Vista, won the opportunity to brew his Bleke Citroen, a Belgian-style pale ale, with the brewery and have it entered into the Great American Beer Festival's ProAm competition.
