What a great place! It's a little hard to find, but once your'e there, you'll want to come back. The bar tender made you feel right at home, was friendly and very knowledgable.Great beer selection. So good in fact we were in San Diego on a self guided beer tour and it's only one of two places we visited more than once.The bar is small but they have ample seating .The food is o.k. for watching sports and such, but the locals suggest it highly.

Located in the Civic Center plaza, if you are not careful, you wont find it....has an old look on the inside but it works....about 10 seats at the bar, if that. Good selection with something for everyone. Could use more darks in my opinion but the bar tenders told me that for the most part, the brewerys in the area are into IPA's and other more hoppy styles. Overall, good with decent food. Had decent lunch crowd when I was there, simple menu with burgers, salads and the such. Chili cheese fries were excellent.
