A few friends were visiting for the day in San Diego and wanted to do some craft beer tasting since San Diego is home to more than 40 beer breweries.
One of the places we went to was Green Flash, which I had been to once briefly. The tours are only $5 and you get four tastes at the end, so we started out with the tour.
The tour was pretty entertaining and I learned quite a few things. It wasnโt too long, and soon we were enjoying our free beer tastes.
We were impressed with the beer and the reasonable prices and all ended up buying some to-go as well. Thereโs about 12 different beers offered, ranging from 5 to 10% in alcohol. For any beer not offered during the tour to taste, you can buy tasters for just $1. An 8 oz glass is offered at a mere $2 and a 16 oz glass at $4.
Normally I donโt like stout beers, but I found myself really enjoying the double stout offered and it ended up being one of my favorites.
Itโs standing room only inside the brewery, but they have picnic tables outside and they often have a food truck on weekends. You can view the food truck schedule on their website.
Thereโs a lot of big and popular breweries in the North section of San Diego, but if youโre looking for something a little more central, I think Green Flash is worth a visit. Itโs also just a nice way to enjoy the afternoon with some friends.
