San Diego has solidified itself as the micro-brew capital of the U.S. This is no small feat for those of us that love a good pint or three. Pacific Beach has solidified itself as the town to go to for a plentiful bar scene. PB offers a beer lover so many bar options that, at times, it can become overwhelming. Do you hit up a small, quiet pub and sip slowly? Or a bustling bar with standing-room only? It really depends on your mood and what type of brew you are in the mood for. However, I think TapRoom gives you the best of both worlds and the best brew selection hands down. TapRoom has over 40 taps providing a thorough array of beer options, including many local breweries Stone, Port, Ale Smith, Ballast, Green Flash, and Karl Straus. The beer is always changing and you can check online to see what is flowing currently. Beer lovers are placed in their favorite quandary — too many beers to choose from! My friends and I love trying all the different brews and sharing sips across the table. If you’re like me and have trouble committing to one beer, pick the “beer flight”: six six-ounce brew tastes at 2.50 each. Theresa Neglia of La Jolla loves hitting up TapRoom on Friday nights with friends. “It’s one of our favorite spots to taste San Diego craft beers. We love the atmosphere and how it’s open-air to the outside. TapRoom is never too crowded and always has a friendly vibe.” TapRoom also provides a must when sipping beer, a delicious menu. The best thing on the menu is the hand-tossed pizzas with gourmet flavors. Toppings range from traditional to goat cheese, insalata, spinach ricotta, chicken pesto, and buffalo barbeque chicken, to name a few. The menu also has a nice selection of subs, pastas, and burgers. The great thing about TapRoom is it is busy but rarely packed, and even on busier nights you can usually head to the back and find an open booth. We love meeting friends out here for a pizza and a few micro- brews. There are a ton of large TVs showing sporting events and surfing videos to give you that true Pacific Beach vibe. TapRoom is always a good time no matter you’re mood and with so many beers on tap, it’s got something for everyone. Unless, of course, you hate beer.
