    Seriously, @Houser, you're killing these. I think I had a couple pretty good ones, but damn dude.

    Hell of a good day for SWTFYW.

    I pricelined a hotel in the Gaslamp so staying right down there but have a car so can get around and planning to do little day trips and excursions. Just have to be a little choosy with the wife being preggo so was trying to get a little more local perspective on where to focus my choices

    Ok well then basing it off of time here's what Id say.

    Within about 5-10 minutes of you depending on traffic:

    Bars - Toronado, Hamiltons, Blind Lady, Tiger!Tiger!
    Restaurants (so the wifey can eat while you drink) - Slaters 50/50 and Stone (both are in Liberty Station), maybe even pacific beach bar and grill.
    Breweries - Modern Times, Societe, Council Brewing, Mission, Saint Archer
    Bottle shop - Best Damn Beer Shop

    If you can venture out about 20-30 minutes north (depending on traffic)

    Bars/Restaurants - Urge Gastropub and Phileas Frogs
    Breweries - Ballast Point, Alesmith, Mike Hess, Karl Strauss, Green Flash
    Bottle Shop - Distillers Outlet

    If you can venture about 40 minutes north (could be shorter depending on traffic) -

    Breweries - Lost Abbey/Port Brewing, Hop Concept, Stone (this is the main one)
    Bars - Churchills.

    If you can venture about 30 minutes east (shorter depending on traffic) -

    Breweries - Alpine

    Hope that helps.

    The wife's cousin lives in SD, so we visit at least once a year and as @Haywire mentioned, one of my fav spots is Blind Lady. good pizza, great tap lists for the most part and while usually busy, still kinda low key.

    So many good places though, I'm sure you'll have a blast regardless!

    Wow my Wildcats run straight through your remaining teams... HAVE AT YOU

    I was 45 min behind on DVR and finished a 2015 Stone IRS much faster than I'd expect while watching it. No #VBS :slight_frown:

    HAVE AT YOU AGAIN

    [​IMG]
    The Five and 2011 Darkness are empties, and a great addition to my empty bottle collection..I may be a hoarder?
    2013&2014 Darkness ...fucking sick!!!
    Surly Eight... Im not sure I'll ever want to defile that sexy white wax!
    Surly Pentagram, looking forward to this and the bottle will make a great addition to my collection!

    Thanks so much for the hook up Brandon!
    Your box is on the way, I hope you are as happy to receive its contents as I was of this!

    Add Toolbox and Belching Beaver as breweries to go too! Also 32 North is decent. Council is legit!
