heading to Laguna beach with the family tomorrow and am curious if there are any spots to drink some worthy craft. I'm looking specifically for Laguna, not HB or Newport since I'll be only able to enjoy what's local in Laguna. I do appreciate any insight. Thanks BA's
Just make sure you go to that specific one, as their other location near downtown Laguna/133 does not have any taps.
Since it's so close to my hotel I will defs looks into it. But I'm sure they'll have stuff I can get in Temecula. Thanks for the heads up on that spot
O'Shea has some decent bottles sometimes. And Stadium recently upped their tap list quality (and quantity), so those are a couple options nearby.
Neither are in Laguna Beach. La Sirena is it. Brussels Bistro if you like the Belgian flavor. Ocean Brewing or whatever is crap.
Can you expand on stadium? I live up the street and have stadium on my blacklist due to their horrid service and fairly poor beers. Is be excited to hear they turned it around.
They've got about 60 taps now. Regularly carry Alpine, the Bruery, Alesmith and a bunch of others. Not a perfect spot by any means, but definitely better than it was.
Right on, I'll be giving them a fair shake this week. Hopefully they put the guest stuff on a decent happy hour price. Thanks for the heads up.
Good to know about Stadium. I live almost within walking distance and haven't been there in almost 3 years because, well, it sucked.
Pretty much the same here, we should see if they are cool with bottle shares and try to set something up down the line. The tastings at Ken's are nice but are often super crowded
For sure. Is Ken the Pacific Park Market guy? They always do stuff on Friday nights and I can almost never make it.
Yeah, I used to go frequently but haven't been able to make most of them last year due to travel or other sched conflicts. Their Xmas bottle share is always a good turnout so I try to make that one if possible.
If Stadium started doing some stuff like that, I'd definitely try to head down there too. I'm up in Santa Monica, but my buddy's right in Laguna Niguel, and lets me crash down there whenever.
