5 | service: 4 | selection: 5 | food: 4 – $$rDev: +2. 7%Went here while on my trip to San Diego for the BA Alesmith release. A very cool place with an amazing selection of beers not only from Port brewing but guest taps as well. Menu has a tremendous variety of pizzas all written on a large chalkboard for you to decipher. And I must admit the pizzas were damn good. The bartender was very informative and seemed to know the beers although I didn’t really question her on anything. Sat and watched the regon vs Cal game and drank many of the beers and couldn’t have had a better time… Menu has a tremendous variety of pizzas all written on a large chalkboard for you to decipher.

An overall great place to have a beer at a quaint modern ruddy beer bar with much seating for busy nights. Reviewed on: 11-04-2007 21:20:10More User Reviews:.
