Exclusive Limited Tasting Events

Wild Barrel Brewing Company

Wild Barrel Brewing Company was first conceived by two friends Bill Sysak and Chris White in 2016 while sitting around one evening enjoying a cigar and some great craft beers. Bill Sobieski, an award-winning homebrewer of 25 years and long-time friend of Bill Sysak, was brought onboard to brew the beer, and the three friends and founders began the process of opening a brewery in San Diego, the craft beer capitol of America.

Prohibition Brewing Co

Ron and Kathy Adams founded Prohibition Brewing Company in 2011 after years of being home-brewers. Their goal was and still is to use traditional brewing methods and the finest ingredients to produce superb, unique brews. Recently Prohibition expanded its facilities to include a new 10-barrel brewhouse. This family-owned brewery is proud to serve quality craft beers to an ever increasing group of good friends, family, and people from the local neighborhoods. While the brewers are always experimenting with new recipes, many favorites are available year round. One such favorite is the Ruby Red Ale, an international gold winner in 2013. The Adams’ passion for their work has been recognized by the community with their most recent award: 2016 Small Business of the Year for the 36th Senate District.

Meadiocrity

Meadiocrity Mead produces award winning mead in San Diego focusing on a unique Bee-to-Bottle approach. We were beekeepers from the start, caring for million bees, and ensure that we receive the best quality honey by treating our bees in the best ways possible. We work with local San Diego farmers and ranchers to select unique nectar that produces incredible mead at our meadery and tasting room in north county. Stop by to try our constantly rotating tap list and see what flavors and styles you like. Whether you like wine, beer, spirits, or seltzers, we have a mead for you. Don’t like mead? Well you haven’t had ours yet.

Raging Cider & Mead Co

Raging Cider & Mead Co is a small family oriented business with their son Travis particularly involved in cellar work, harvesting, planting, and other orchard work. Travis’s wife Lindsay runs local deliveries of their self-distributed ciders to bottle shops & restaurants/taphouses. Their daughter Sierra spends time assisting with harvest & planting and her husband Cody helps maintain and harvest the orchards. Their grandsons Silas & Deklan have been known to collect a bushel or two at times.

Arcana Brewing

Arcana Brewing is a craft microbrewery located in always sunny Carlsbad, California. It is here that they embarked on a journey to create tasty ales that celebrate the uniqueness of life. From potent porters to small batch strong ales, the beauty of being a small time purveyor of brews is that we get to have more fun in front of the kettle. They always have our classic favorites on tap, but are able to experiment at will, subbing in seasonals and following where our taste buds lead. They even have the flexibility to customize specially brewed batches just for you and yours. Their mission is to introduce you to something new, keeping the mystery and spontaneity of craft brewing alive. 

Golden Coast Mead

Golden Coast Mead strives to light up people’s lives and regenerate the earth. They take this as a lesson from the abundance mindset of our millions and millions of suppliers; the humble honey bees. Mead is magic, considering pollinators take nectar from 10,000 flowers to make the honey for one sip of mead. Seriously. They did the math in 2013. It’s still true. With mead they can help restore personal, communal, and pollinator health. They have taken a traditional beverage discovered by the ancient humans around the world and have spent the last 10+ years & over 10,000+ hours, gaining mastery into evolving their own niche that their partners and customers have coined for them. Golden Coast Mead offerings are authentically: Gluten Free, Preservative Free, Synthetic or Added Sugar Free, Lightly effervescent and delicately balanced
