BNS Brewing and Distillery Bar • $
10960 Wheatlands Ave, Santee

“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!“

Seek Beer Co. Brewery • $$
3052 El Cajon Blvd suite C, San Diego - 10.05 miles

“The team who works here is amazing. The beer has depth and character and the Hazy's.... OMG! Top notch! It is a San Diego must see/taste brewery. One thing that stands out as well is that the have sours but not traditional ones. They are not sour at all, more like a fruit drink. I can now bring my non beer loving friends with me and enjoy. There are two other breweries attached to this one as well. Three breweries who all have specialties so whatever type of beer you like you will find it it.“

Lightning Brewery Brewery • $
13200 Kirkham Way STE 106, Poway - 7.52 miles

“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.“

Night Parade Brewing Company Brewery • $

“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!“

Hodad’s Brewing Company *Closed to Public* Brewery •
9726 Aero Dr B, San Diego - 8.06 miles

“Run by the best people, with the best beer, serving the best burgers.This micro-brewery is top notch by every standard and, to get it this right on their first try is more than amazing.I got a private tour and it blew my hops off. And boy do they take it seriously, though the half pipe, rec room, and living room style lounge would beg to differ.The beer reflects the same fun yet dynamic nature that the crew characterizes as San Diego Sty-LEE. Business in the front and party in the rear. Not to mention, the array of flavor profiles they serve (on their first set of brews) will tickle almost anyone's palate that enjoys a frosty beverage while soaking in the sun.I am a fan and will definitely continue to buy beer from Hodad's. Now, let's get a petition going to have them start bottling and then distributing so I can get one anywhere.“

“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 ? ?“

Nice little patio area to sit in the sun. Lots of locals were making their way in and out while we were there which is always a great sign!“
