Newer SD Breweries

Since he left, it isn't worth going to. No good beer being brewed, and last I heard, the manager doesn't even know or care about craft beer. The only thing worthwhile there would be the Beer & Bourbon event that Best Damn is putting on next month, and that is only because of the Bourbon and other people's beers they will be pouring.

 

Thorn St. Brewery isn't necessarily new, but I think it's definitely something you should check out if you haven't already. Their NPIPA is really good!

 

Is Hess ever going to open?

 

check the Westcoaster out-THE best free beer mag in the country. The best source for SD beer news. Word.

"Recommended: West Coaster, to poster, westcoastbeerlvr."

 

It's a good source of news and a good resource otherwise, but critical remarks of breweries you will not get.

 

FTFY

 

Except the writer for the homebrewing columns is an idiot. Don't trust that guy...

 

Iron Fire in Temecula is making some great beers right now.

 

Who cares? Mike Hess is better than you.

 

I think this every single time someone says a beer "blew their mind".

 

This makes my dirty beaver sad.

 

That depends. If after that they had trouble getting noticing changing traffic signals, then maybe they really did blow their mind. [add Ringo drum fill]
