Let me now if I am missing anything important out that way and/or if anybody wants to meet up. There are a couple other breweries listed in that direction, but they don’t seem to be open on Tuesdays
Wolf Creek was closed. None of you nad-sacks could have saved me the trouble? |

Good call, didn’t catch that it wasn’t in the system yet. Just added it

I probably shouldn’t be forming my opinion on the grand opening party but that’s all I’ve experienced so far. It was kind of weird that they had a quasi beer fest in the back for the people who bought tickets yet were still open for regular business for us regular shmucks. The beer is decent to good. Certainly better than those two AleSmith/Mikkeller IPAs that have been on tap down the way at the new AleSmith facility. The tasting room is very bright and colorful now, kind of an interesting change from before. It’s not clear to me which of the beers were brewed in house and which were imported, or if all of them were brewed in house. It’s worth a stop for sure, and being only a mile from the new AleSmith plant (along with the new humungous Ballast Point factory) you can hit a few of the big breweries in one trip.
Thanks for the efforts and info. This is useful for planning my San Diego trip. |

Like closed for good or closed on that particular day? |

Did not know that. Thanks for the update. That’s kind of a crappy rating I wrote there...
Its crazy to think that you can go to two new (CA) breweries every week and NEVER revisit one. |

Brocation, can you text me a good picture of the outside with the logo above the front door? I want to upload it here. Or you can do it if you’re doing it from a PC and not a phone.
Regular shmucks? We were drinking Beers with Mikkel if you forgot. |
