As San Diego's first and only Brewery/Winery/Restaurant, we pride ourselves on putting everything we have into the things we do and push the boundaries of creative products to share with our guests.
Our beers are focused on drinkability, merging inspirational flavors from our restaurant and winery to create one of a kind products.
Our tasting room is attached to our restaurant, The Cork and Craft. We're open every day except for Monday, including lunch during the work week, and brunch on Sundays. We not only offer our own beers on tap, but many other guest beers from around the world that we share our 40 taps with. We feature flights of our own beers which can be enjoyed in the bar, restaurant or on our heated outdoor patio.

Draught Fully muddy yellow-ochre beer with fluffy off-white head. Citrusexplosion, clean fruity acids, lunaria, nectarine, New World hopmonster. Bitterish-fruity, more grapefruit, also nectarines, marmalade. Notes of sage and wormwood. Sharp, nearly astringent from the hopoils. Fully yeast-filled, feels better carbonated than it looks. Very nice. Not much in the matter of presentation, but what a hopbomb! 8/4/7/4/16

Tasting glass draft @ Gollem. Dark brown, black hue, small head. Nose is too harsh varnish, alcoholic medicinal glue, prune. Taste is less harsh, bourbon, sugar, vanilla, prune, candy, still too much harsh varnish alcoholic, really takes the beer down in my opinion, way too harsh, shame with less heat would be great.

9 4 9 5 18 Bottle shared At Murphy’s Law. Black with a big ring beige head. Aroma of rich dark chocolate and hazelnut with notes of vanilla. Really perfect in terms of the dark chocolate and nutty aroma. Flavour is light heavy sweet and moderate bitter. Full bodied with soft carbonation. Lovely stuff, very focussed but perfection at what it is.
