Yeah but the bars still close before two, have to post where some of these brews might be for purchase, but the SF Nor Cal nano brews, think that is the new term now, are rockin, had them at the Tornado on Haight, but will check these out as well. I thought all San Diego was good for was college credit surf classes and low wage service sector jobs, my how things have changed since I have left there. One dollar beers on Sunday.

Stone Brewery is fking legendary. Shame on a few of you above for not knowing.


England makes some really nice ales, Belgium, incredible too...Stone represents like a mofo. Anyone on beeradvocate? Do homework.

^Abita makes pretty good beer. They don't knock it out of the park like Stone does, but I like Turbodog, Restoration ale, and purple haze on occasion (that's actually all i've had from them.) That Pecan beer looks delicious tho.

Never had a Stone, it seems I should look into it. Jenks, that Abita Select is awesome too, had it for the first time this weekend at the brewery. Apparently varies in alcohol content and taste depending on the batch.

Re: San Diego Is Home To America’s Finest Craft Beers

stone is the apex folks, and most definitely a cream of the crop brew. listen to jenks and check out stone's profile on beer advocate. adzey, you would have no idea son.

i actually made a drunk thread about one of stone's crafts -- a week or so ago -- whilst enjoying a few from their vertical epic series --> http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/...ad.php?t=78117


everyone who's tried stone knows the sheer quality of their shit. stone is at the top of my list, and i drink it weekly. if you're ever in southern california, just hit me up, drinks are on me. strongly advise checking out the official site as well.
