The iconic Lower Haight bar Toronado, known for its extensive selection of craft beers since 1987, is up for sale as owner Dave Keene retires. Priced at $1.75 million, the sale includes the bar's Type 42 license and its building. Toronado has earned fame for its focus on rare and 'extreme beers' and has been pivotal in promoting craft breweries. The bar is celebrating its legacy with a special Toronado Beer Week, honoring Keene's contributions to the craft beer movement and its strong community involvement with events and rare beer offerings.
This marks the end of an era for the generations of beer drinkers that have shared lives with us.
These days, due to the bar's strong reputation in the beer industry, it is considered a rite of passage for a brewery to land a beer on the coveted Toronado menu.
