Hey BA's, My buddy is traveling to San Diego here in a couple of weeks, and was asking me where to go in terms of bottle shops/brew pubs/breweries. Any suggestions? He's from GA as well, so of course would want to try some beers that we don't have access to here (I told him Ballast Point may not be a good place to visit, since it's so readily available here). I suggested Stone brewery, as I've heard that's a very cool place to be. However, does anyone with more knowledge of the area have any other suggestions? And just FYI, he's big into IPA/DIPA/Pale Ale/Stouts/Porters, not a big sour or saison fan.
It's still on the front page, but buried a bit: http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/visiting-san-diego-summer-2015.309241/
