Good Time Design’s new project in Pacific Beach, Moonshine Beach and Cerveza Jacks, at 1165 Garnet Ave., is being remodeled with plans to open in 2016.
The space was formerly Typhoon Saloon/Fred’s Mexican Cafe.
Good Time Design is a restaurant, nightlife & entertainment group that owns numerous venues in San Diego including The Loma Club in Point Loma, The Tipsy Crow and Lucky’s Lunch Counter, the Blind Burro, Moonshine Flats and the Cat Eye Club in the Gaslamp Quarter downtown. Ty Hauter is the owner at Good Time Design.
Construction began on the Moonshine Beach/Cerveza Jack’s on Nov. 2. Moonshine Beach is the sister concept to East Village’s Moonshine Flats and The Deck, which is two concepts in one. Moonshine Beach will be a two-in-one with Cerveza Jack’s as the restaurant portion. Moonshine Beach is scheduled to open in mid-February 2016.
The $4 million renovation will result in a 20,000-square-foot venue that will accommodate 1,500 people and will feature an entertainment venue (with a larger stage than Moonshine Flats) and a restaurant.
Moonshine Beach will be the only major entertainment venue in Pacific Beach and will feature live music four nights per week during winter months and four-plus nights per week during summer months.
Weekend entertainment will include today’s best, young and high-energy country acts (both regional and national touring), special concert events and additional national and regional touring acts. Weeknight’s Moonshine Beach will present reggae and indie rock acts.  
Moonshine Beach will have a southern Gulf Coast hospitality feel to it, whereas Moonshine Flats has a southern-influenced Texas roadhouse feel.
Cerveza Jack’s will open in April 2016 and feature a menu of woodfired Mexican fare, but until then a pop-up version of Cerveza Jack’s will serve food beginning in December 2015.
