My husband and will be in Southern California between 20-25.4. We’ll be staying in Escondido and plan to travel between SD and L.A. Is there anything particularly interesting going on around that time that we should pay attention to?
Thanks,
MK

Nothing that I know of but you can check out Mikkeller Brewing that is opening this weekend in SD.

Thanks! Plenty of the places mentioned by t0rin0 are already marked (as well as Modern Times). As for Mikkeller - we’ll see if we can deal with the hype ;)

I would add abnormal beer co in Rancho Bernardo. It’s a restaurant/brewey/winery that is putting out some quality stuff. Green Flash Cellar 3 is worth a visit as well

I’ve yet to have a good sour from Cellar 3 but YMMV.

Same here. The place is very nice but its out of the way and the beers are varying degrees of meh.

Well, I somewhat agree (although the brown sour I had last week was on point), but I still thinks it’s worth a visit for someone from out of town stayin in the North inland region.

Oh and the BA Silva stout on Nitro was crazy good.

Taco place and Baron - mapped. I’m on a holiday. Trying to enjoy my beer. Skipping sour as long as I can.

In that case you can probably skip some of the popular newer locations like Tool Box, Council, and Beachwood Blendery (definitely still visit the restaurant/brewery though). Cellar 3 has some non-sour beers like barrel aged stouts and whatnot, so if you have some spare time maybe swing by for a quick flight.
