Description
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.
Come in for the beer, stay for the food, and discover your Abnormal side.

Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is plenty of coffee and some roasted nuts. Flavor is more of a creamy sweetness with some chocolate and a bit of coffee. For intense as the coffee is in the aroma it loses a bit in the flavor. This is still a nice sweet and malty stout with just enough bitter bakes chocolate to rescue it.

Pour is a clean but hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is a big blast of citrus with some apricot and pine. Flavor is citrus and pine with plenty of bitterness and the finish is super dry. No malt gets in the way of the hops and this is quite tasty.
