“Battleground Brown is outstanding!!!“
“Just chat with the staff. They will match you perfectly with their brew. This place is definitely an “Experience” for me and a few co-workers.“
“By far my favorite brewery in SD! Good people, great environment and the owner Remy is a solid guy. Always feel welcomed here. Beer selection is great and always a good time. Today I got the razzle dazzle sour and it was delicious! Definitely worth the visit.“
“Great atmosphere and better beer! Love this place.“
“First off, junes kinda slap. Second, the band that was playing needs to be headlining a country wide tour. The drummer was the human version of a golden-doodle that could jam tf out. Third, THE garlic parmesan wings with ranch - are you serious!? Would bathe in it three times with no regrets. Lastly, think about the best vibes you’ve ever felt at any bar. Double it. Still not enough. Triple it. Getting closer. Comfy couches inside, any board game you could think of, great outdoor area with a band (see above), families and couples and friends just having a grand old time. It is impossible not to be happy here. Even though a 5 year old beat me in corn hole (he cheated), I still had a fat smile on my face. The friendliest people you could think of. Also, maybe you’re thinking “I don’t wanna drink hard kombucha, what?”. Shut your mouth they have 30 flavors I’m sure you’ll like one. Gut health is gut wealth. But still - they have BEER too. Now you’re thinking, oh wait this place actually does sound dope. BUT WAIT, there’s more. Their merch is absolutely sick and cheaper than zara. Literally bought 3 shirts and a bathing suit for like $50. Catch me repping in the streets. Anyway, I’ll be dreaming of this place forever and trying to reach the high I felt at 5:43pm PDT on 4/5/25. Thanks for listening and have a good evening 🫡“
“Exceptional beers! With a wide variety of styles. Their west coast IPA and saison are my favorite. The staffs are very friendly. Stepped in 30 mins before the closing time but still got great service. Highly recommend!“
“Hello Athletic Brewing! I tried your N/A Hazy IPA after seeing a comment or review from someone who had stated that it tased the closest to the real thing as he’s had so far. I decided to give it a whirl for myself - well he wasn’t wrong and your N/A Hazy IPA did not disappoint. Keep exploring and definitely keep this one on the shelves! Cheers, Will ~ Cali’s Central Valley.“
“Really good non-alcoholic ginger beer! There was a surprising variety of flavors available. What was nice is some were spicier than others, so if you're into really spicy ginger you can get the original or matcha flavors, or for something more mild go for the POG for instance. They had some delicious meat pies available as well for a bite to eat. All their flavors are available to go on cans, the owner sealed some right in front of us. This was a really cool option in this complex, something delicious but not intoxicating.“

“Don’t forget also a great compliment to the beer selection here is the amazing wood fire pizza with @pizzatrolley“
“Eddy's an awesome bartender!“
“The guys here treat you like family. We came to pick up some kegs for my buddies wedding who made a bit of a mistake when ordering. The graciousness and general attitude demonstrated by Daniel the manager while accommodating us as much as possible blew me away. Not to mention the beer is delicious. Daniel the manager is the kind of guy you want to take with you and attach to your circle of friends. 10/10 will be back again.“
“Discovered this little microbrewery when driving down Hibert Street in Mira Mesa after a walk around Miramar Lake. There was a sidewalk banner advertising the brewery and I’m super happy I scoped the place out. The crew and patrons were having ugly Xmas sweater night and our little dog was welcomed as we were.I had Siren Song, an IPA, and my friend had Wolf, a German altbier. We were delighted with our cold pints, the beers were both excellent!!!!! We are definitely coming back and inviting friends!Give this brewery a try, you won’t be sorry!“
“A Wonderful place for ice COLD BEER and yummy food...🔥😋🔥“
“Duck Foot Rules!
From the moment you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, laid-back, and full of positive energy. Their staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to help you find a beer you’ll love. Their passion for their craft shines through!
Do you like beer? I hope so! The selection is incredible, with a fantastic variety of creative brews that cater to all tastes. Whether you’re into IPAs, stouts, or lighter ales, Duck Foot has something for everyone. Plus, their commitment to gluten-reduced options makes it an awesome spot for those with dietary restrictions. That's a big load off my back (or should I say, my bill?!)
The atmosphere is perfect for hanging out with friends or enjoying a casual night out. Add in the eclectic live music, unique food truck options, and friendly staff, and you’ve got a winning combination!
If you’re a beer enthusiast or just love discovering local spots, Duck Foot is a must-visit. Cheers to great beer and even better vibes!“

“Another amazing events in the books for VBC. Thank you so much to the team at Protector for supporting the Veteran community and hosting our 9th Anniversary event. The team professionally planned and executed our event for 200 plus guests without a hitch! We look forward to continuing our relationship with your brand and planning future events!“
“Pay with CASH ONLY here.
On 6/22, Societe added a tip onto my card that I didn't authorize. Tipped one 2beer transaction up to 20 even and the other trx i left at price of 2 beers - later saw that the lesser transaction was increased to add an additional $4 tip.
Great beer tho. (Sorry but next time, tips will be $0 -- this is BS, not to mention fraud)“
“Love their West Coast IPA and the beertender service is excellent. Came here on a busy Thursday night with both kids and the pup. Even with a biotech Meetup event happening I never waited more than 2 min for a beer when a small lined formed at the bar. ??
Kids had a great time playing around the corn hole set and with the arcade games. Poseidon Project was serving up delicious wood fire pies ? . We had the Hot Honey and it was ? ?“

“I had the pleasure of visiting BNS Brewing and Distillery in Santee, California, and it was an experience worth talking about. The brewery exudes a welcoming atmosphere with its rustic yet laid-back charm, making it the perfect spot for both regulars and newcomers. On this visit, I was there to watch my friend compete in a lively cornhole tournament, which was one of the highlights of the night. The event was impressively organized, with smooth registration, clearly designated playing areas, and a schedule that kept everything running seamlessly. It was fantastic to see a mix of serious competitors and casual players enjoying themselves and interacting in friendly competition.
The crowd added to the experience with their energy—cheering, laughing, and sharing moments that brought everyone together. Whether you were there to play or just watch, like I was, the enthusiasm was infectious. The staff at BNS played a big part in creating such an enjoyable atmosphere, always attentive and ensuring everyone had a great time.
Beyond the event, BNS Brewery’s craft beers and distilled beverages were exceptional. With a diverse range of flavors to choose from, there’s truly something for everyone. For anyone looking for a place that blends community spirit, good drinks, and quality entertainment, BNS Brewing and Distillery is a must-visit. I highly recommend it!
Shout out to AJ Bell and Emilio!“
“Absolutely HUGE selection of beer! The food is excellent as well. They are very accommodating and family friendly. The staff are lovely and attentive. Food and drinks came out quickly! The whole place is very roomy and accessible for strollers, wheelchairs, etc. Highly recommend!
I had a group party with a reservation for about 20 people and they were all set up for us when we arrived and were very prompt with every food and drink order as well as cleaning away empty dishware as we went. I highly recommend them for any group dining events, just be sure to call ahead and reserve a spot!“

“A must visit. True to the roots of the small brewery experience in the San Diego area. Visiting Lightning feels like visiting a bit of brewing history.
There is an indoor and outdoor seating area to enjoy. The beer on tap is great! Really unique brewery styles compared to most breweries. Nice to be able to order a few types of beer I have never seen elsewhere. Of course, they have the tried and true Thunderweizen, also a must have when you visit. It really is the definition of a Souther California take on a Hefeweizen style. Fits perfectly with the great weather.
There is plenty of parking around the building, a few places large enough to bring a sizable group of people after work for a birthday. They also have some snacks that you can grab while you are here.
The staff was attentive and professional, which is always appreciated. You can also get a glimpse into the production when you visit as well, since it's a big open warehouse.“
