If you can judge a book by it’s cover, then you can also judge a brewpub by it’s website.
San Diego Brewing Company’s website (www.sandiegobrewing.com) is the epitome of small brewery websites. It’s beautiful, feature rich, full of quality content, updated frequently, and extremely informative. Hats off to the team that put it together. The site set our expectations for an inaugural visit to their establishment.
We were, unfortunately, over sold.
There’s no better way to celebrate a special occasion than visiting local breweries with a couple of close friends. A problem arises when you have to find someone to drive though. We solved our dilemma by hiring Brewery Tours of San Diego to shuttle us around the greater San Diego area this weekend.
Brewery Tours took their time in explaining all of our options and assisted in selecting an agenda that matched our group’s specific needs. Their staff is very informative and knowledgeable about San Diego’s beer community.
Driving up to Big Bear, I noticed a sign I’ve never seen before “Fresh Beer Brewed Here - 866-BEER”. Wait? There’s a brewery up in Big Bear? How did I not know this? Needless to say, I had to check it out before I went back home. It took a little convincing to get the crew interested in heading out, but I was able to wrangle a couple of guys for the mission.
Big Bear Mountain Brewery is located at 40260 Big Bear Blvd, 92315 in a large light yellow building. It’s hard to miss if you know it’s there, it’s the only yellow building in the area.
