OK. We cheated on this one. We actually did not get a chance to visit this brewery when we were in the San Diego area but we did have several of their bottled beers at a tasting at our local beer bar, Manderes. Another relatively new brewery, great beers are coming from it already. Though we are going to visit this brewery in the future, we need your help reviewing their beer. Please add your comment on Green Flash below.
With an impressive line up , you might be pressed to find a favorite. Nearly every beer brewed here has won an award in some state or national competition. I am partial to the IPAs.
Recommendation:
West Coast IPA - “This West Coast-Style India Pale Ale is extravagantly hopped, full flavored, medium bodied and copper colored. A menagerie of hops is combined throughout the brewing process to impart specific characteristics. Hops used include Simcoe for a unique fruitiness and grapefruit zest, Columbus for strong hop pungency, Centennial for pine and citrus notes, and Cascade for floral aroma.” ABV: 7%, IBU’s: 95.
