McIlhenney Brewing (2021)

Just to clarify, this is a new brewery in Alpine, but being started by the former founder/brewer of Alpine Brewing?

 

Yes. And in the same brewery as old Alpine.

 

Pretty ho-hum unfortunately:

 

A friend brought crowlers of Muntz and Wizard's Wand to a get-together yesterday. Both were outstanding. Muntz was a tiny bit thin on the mouthfeel but otherwise smelled and tasted an awful lot like OG Nelson.

 

I enjoyed everything I tried (you all are sleeping on the pale ale) but it's a new system installed there so it will take some time for Shawn to get things dialed in.

 

This is same address os the old ABC. Restaurant/bar on left side of building and brewery tasting room on right? Salon and bookstore in between?

 

Same address of old ABC...bookstore no longer there. =(

 

And there's no restaurant.

And no "bookstore."

 

No restaurant. No bookstore. No worries.
Planning to get some Mexican nearby North Park before driving east to Alpine.

 

There’s a lil Mexican restaurant a stones throw down the way from Mchilhenney. Big tacos and good for the time being.

 

The Joint looks to be a BBQ store.

 

A bbq supply store. pellets. smokers. wood. money laundering front

 

Do they sell propane and propane accessories?

 

Any food rec’s between Alpine and El Cajon?

 

Could just go to Grand Ole bbq out in Flinn Springs

 

Yes to this

 

Great to see these guys back at it and in the original location to boot! Good for them. Look forward to trying to get my paws on some in the future.

 

For those that want to try but the drive to Alpine is still too much for them.. O'Brien's put on 6 different kegs this past weekend.
