    Lemon lime slushee malt liquor

    You can get your booze and then go sit somewhere else with in the food court. The set up is kind of strange. It's like you have a giant warehouse with a bar in the middle of it; surrounded by small kiosks that sell very specific food.

    This brewery is tucked in the Rodeo 39 Food Hall. Came here on Saturday afternoon before dinner and were able to find seats at the bar. We shared a flight since we couldn't decide what to try. My bf's favorite was Lucky Fin which was a Japanese rice lager (had some hints of sake flavor) and mine was Ink'd which had some chocolate notes.

    Crafting their beer onsite, like, right behind the bar, Bearded Tang Brewing is the spot to hit up at Rodeo 39. THE DRINKS | Beers, wines, ciders, and seltzers. I drunk... - Carlos Danger | Award winning in the American Cream Ale category at the Great American Beer Festival 2022, this beer is refreshingly crisp with a slight yeasty finish. THE BEARDED TANG BREWING FEELS | Modern vibes; it's like your friendly neighborhood bar where everybody knows your name. THE PARKING SITUATION | Free parking outside of the food hall. No issues finding an open spot on a weekday, but weekends could be a different story. WOULD I COME BACK? | Yep, love the exceptionally long bar for everyone to hang out at and interested in trying out other beers.

    I came here on a Sunday afternoon, it's in an open food court with many different food options. They served beers and cocktails. I had some of their cocktails. My bartender was very friendly and made me feel welcomed. There was plenty of seating on the bar top. Will be back again. It was 10 mins from my house.

    STEPH JUDGEMENT: Good brews, friendly staff I've been here twice now and have to say that I'm a fan. Both were occasions when I had some time to kill waiting for people and I've found it to be a very pleasant spot to grab a brew and chill out. They have a nice selection of easy-to-drink selections and both times I ended up ordering hazy beers that were quite delicious. The staff have been friendly and helpful, answering questions, providing tasters, and keeping the counters neat and tidy. They also have a large screen tv playing sports, if that's your thing. I'm sure I'll be back again before too long.

    The brewery is in a food court that has lots of options. There is lots of parking but it was so busy that a spot was tough to find. The beers: Kristal Weizen German Hefeweizen 2/5 (filtered but shouldn't be) The OG Hazy Hefeweizen 4/5 Rugger Bugger Irish Red 3.5/5 Tangy- Acai Blueberry sour 4/5

    This Brewery is located inside of Rodeo 39 Public Market closer to the back of the market. Even if you don't drink Beer, there are other good options! They have Wines, Ciders, and Seltzers. I also saw 3 Slushie drinks. This last time I got a Prickly Paradise which is a Prickly Pear Cider. It is a little sweet and I really enjoyed it! I love the fish logo, a Tang that is bearded (as is in the name) with a pipe in its' mouth! It is just so cute! They are on the Beer Tap Pulls... all lined up in a row! Outside the rear of the market is an area with some games. You can see Bearded Tang inside to see about renting the equipment. They have lots of seating at their bar counter. If you don't want to sit there, you can take your drink anywhere on the premises of the market. I would like to try one of their slushies next visit!

    The service was good. They're seating everywhere where you can have a beer and eat your food there from the other vendors. They only accept card though no cash. The menu shows which beers are "award winning" so it's good to know to try out different ones

    Froze and blue raspberry lemonade
    Alex J.

    I'm really hoping the beer here is better than the slushees because they were horrendous. I really wanted to get a beer but when I saw the slushees, especially it being such a hot and humid day, I figured why not try something different and hopefully unique or tasty enough to recommend this place. Man was I wrong. I ordered the froze and blue raspberry lemonade slushees, which came to about $22. The rose was gross. So bitter, dry, and absolutely no sweetness like a typical rose would have. The blue raspberry lemonade on the other hand was way too sweet and had no alcohol flavor. It seems like there was no balance between the two, one being way too strong and bitter, while the other was way too sweet and little alcohol.

    Love a bearded fish.

    I came by for their Oktoberfest celebrations. Decided on a flight and I went ahead and said PROST to their Oktoberfest special beers! Bartenders are super quick, nice and polite, great open seating and friendly environment makes this place a great hang spot for a drink.

    The part of the menu that's not the ever-changing beer list. (Some of the beers might change, but I wanted to show the flight pricing.)

    Gosh tang, that was a fun night. Bearded Tang Brewing is a relatively new brewery that's located inside the Rodeo 39 Public Market. It's been on my radar because it's close to my base of operations during my visits to Orange County, and when I learned that they'd managed to win a gold medal at the 2021 Great American Beer Festival after just a year of operation, I grew even more interested in visiting them despite their lack of notoriety compared to some of the older SoCal craft breweries. I came in and immediately checked the paper menus, finding to my delight that they'll let you build your own flight of beers, with any four of their brews for $12 (including the good stuff). I ordered a few flights, and while I won't go into detail about everything, lest this review turn into a novella, I enjoyed most if not all of the beers and found that almost none contained off-flavors, aside from maybe the pale ale. I do want to mention that none of what I had was actually an IPA! They only have a couple on draft currently, and I didn't quite make it down the menu that far. A lot of lagers and various less-hoppy fare are available compared to the ubiquitous. I do like IPAs, but I give Bearded Tang a lot of credit for their variety. The one beer which I will describe was my last memory of the night (no, I didn't drink _that_ much), and it was the medal-winner. Vlad the Impaler is this beer, and they specifically won the category of Coffee Stout or Porter. There's so much rich coffee flavor in this thing, and even though it felt a tad sweet to start, I grew more accustomed (or maybe less full from dinner) as I worked through the beer. Sometimes I don't really vibe with acclaimed beers, but this one was magical and you've gotta try it if you're a fan of coffee. They may not be Bottle Logic (although they also have a hexagonal logo) or another renowned brewery, but you should definitely stop by Bearded Tang Brewing if you're in the immediate area and want craft beer. Order a flight if you're into that kind of thing. You can sit at the bar or take the beer around Rodeo 39.

    Bearded Tang Brewing is a gem in Rodeo 39! We got a flight so we could try different beers. The bartender/service was nice and asked us what we liked and recommended some things. Each one we had was great! We even ended up getting some crowlers to go. When you buy something, they also allow you to play a game of cornhole, which we took full advantage of while we drank outside.

    Having a good ol' time with good ol' company! A great spot to kick back, drink, and hanging out!
    Alexis A.

    Took one of my best friend's here and it was both our first time at this particular spot! The service was GREAT and it was a spot that you can just hangout and conversate! Staff allows you to also come and bring your other drinks here as long as you clean up after yourselves!

Their beers are pretty solid with standout for me being their 7.4% Hazy IPA. One thing to note is one pint could be $7 while the next is $11 ~ the prices do vary a bit. Since it's in a food hall, there is tons of seating and it was never overly crowded at the bar. Nice bartenders that were always quick to attend to my group of friends the whole night! We had a fabulous night thanks to the folks at Capo Craft~!

    Capo Craft we're vibin with you!…read more This craft brewery meets craft cocktail bar is stacked with some of the best seating, energy and feel good vibes in the OC as well as inside Rodeo 39. We were treated to a live DJ while treating ourselves to good beer and good bevs. The Capo West Coast IPA is solid, but the Capo Hazy IPA blew me away. We 10 to 16oz pours, but a pitcher of this would've gone well with our crew of five. Lots of great eats nearby to balance it all out. The service was attentive and the crowd was abundant on a Friday night. Capo Craft is open from 11am - 11pm on Saturdays as well as Fridays and from 11am to 9pm Sunday through Thursday. We stayed until closed and shut it down. Mexi Cali Negroni, Mission Margarita, and their Painted Hills (Plata Tequila meets Elderflower Liqueur, Aperol and Agave) all caught my eye. Some cool guest beers available on tap. Cool N/A and Zero Proof concoctions as well. They have frozen slush, but whoever opened that day forgot to make it, which is my only con. Free parking and Wi-Fi courtesy Rodeo 39 Public Market. Restrooms on the north end of Capo. Good place to enjoy the end of the day, celebrate the weekend or the warmer season ahead.

    A solid Thai restaurant! We ordered the yellow curry, fried…read morerice, and pad Thai and we were pretty pleased with every dish. The standout dish had to be their signature yellow curry. The chicken in it was soooo tender. It almost felt like it melted in my mouth. The Thai fried rice was yummy as well. The chicken in the fried rice was a little dry but the flavors compensated. The pad Thai was delicious and I'm usually very picky with my pad Thais. The noodles were super soft and it had a solid tangy flavor to them. We arrived at 4:30pm when they just opened but they seemed to get the dishes out super fast. The service was super nice and attentive as well. Overall, very pleased with my experience and will come again.

    It's been a long time since I've been to this place at least two years and things have changed…read more They've redecorated. It looks a lot nicer. The menu has been simplified and the number of dishes has dropped dramatically. The prices have gone up, but that's the norm nowadays. Quantity is about average. I wouldn't say they're big portions or small portions, just enough. I ordered several dishes. I ordered the Ong choi, the chicken Pad See, but ended up getting a beef Pad See instead. A garlic pork dish which was tough and dry and a panang beef curry. The Ong Choi was tasty with what looked like peanuts or maybe beans as toppings. The Pad Su was a touch on the sweet side, but the curry on the panang beef is something I would put on top of white rice to add extra oomph. The service was quick and besides a little mistake in the ordering (no biggie) everything was fine. I do like the new decorations, but there is a weird smell as you enter the restaurant like a leaking gas line. Sit near the rear and you won't smell it at all.

There are TVs throughout the restaurant playing a variety of sports games. AHI TUNA TARTARE ($15.75) - the dish only came with three chips for the entire dish which was crazy to us. Also, the seaweed salad was an interesting addition. We were not fans of this. 2/5 FRENCH FRIES ($8.40) - they have different seasonings and we chose the Cajun one. We liked that they were skinny fries and they were addicting. I especially liked the spicy aioli dipping sauce. 4.5/5 GARLIC NOODLES SHRIMP ($23.10) - we thought it could've been saltier and used more garlic. The shrimp add-on was $12.60 which was not really worth for 5 pieces of shrimp. They were big pieces of shrimp though although not the easiest to peel. 2.5/5 ANGUS BEEF RIBEYE ($50) - this was cooked well and had good flavor. It came with mushrooms, asparagus, and a dipping sauce that we didn't care for. We would've liked some flaky sea salt on top to add more savoriness. 4/5 For drinks, the aum fashioned ($16) was a standard old fashioned and the heart shaker ($13) was pretty good. They have happy hour 3-7pm Monday to Thursday but unfortunately not on Fridays or the weekend. It's a little alarming that my favorite dish was the fries. This looks like a fun place in the evening so I would come back for a night out.
