Aaron: Having Joel join us made my night. It’s great to have some fresh company. I was initially totally unimpressed by the 31 TVs located throughout th single room. Fortunately, the quality of both the pizza and the beer won me over. It is a chain (we discovered after we arrived), but I guess it wouldn’t be if it wasn’t good. Cool sampler tray. ----THUMBS UP
Mark: I would recommend this brewery on the condition that one sits faing away from the TVs as I did. Since there are only two of these seats I would suggest ordering pizza and beer to go. The sampler was classy. Great pizza. ----THUMBS UP
Meg: Well, the homemade lasagna (sic.) was quite good. But the pint of Sunset Amber was pretty disappointing—I didn’t even finish half of it. It was fun having Joel join us, and overall it was a good evening. ----THUMBS ASIDE
SUPER SPECIAL GUEST, Bishop Mitchell: What a joy to get the last minute call that these guys were in town. I haven’t done a sampler in a while, but I enjoy the diversity of it. The hef and the stout were the best ones, I’m not sure I would by anything else. The pizza was good, but the company is what made it all worth it. ----THUMBS UP
San Marcos Brewery and Grill, San Marcos, CA
Mark: What can I say… San Marcos is the man—and the brewery. The architecture kicks toshie and they get props for the outdoor fire pits. The food was good. The stout was excellent, and Carson is letting us crash on his floor—good times! I’d drive out of my way anytime for this place. ----TWO THUMBS UP
Aaron: What a relief! All we had to do was get south of LA and everything starts looking up. Thank God for San Marcos. Er, well, I really have no idea what the place is like, but I sure Enjoyed the brewery. Tonight we included Meg on th sampler tasting (relieving her of DD duty), and that heavily swayed the numbers on the ratings. Until the Stout and Pale, I liked everything they didn’t and visa versa. This all resulted in high numbers for the place, which, on the whole, I think it deserves. Oh! And thy had nachos, a first on the trip. ----THUMBS UP
Meg: Well, I certainly enjoyed San Marcos. Perhaps it was because I tried the sampler tonight. I thought that the majority of the beers were great and I was surprised that for four of the six Mark and I agreed on the rating. The murals were cool and if I lived in the area, I’d definitely come again. Oh yeah, and the food was just what I wanted tonight. ----THUMBS UP
