    This was my first time visiting and the counter staff could not have been nicer or more helpful…read more Thankfully, they helped me select a flight of five beers, three of which I really liked. And if you are a fan of dark, heavy, and/or bourbon barrel beers like me, the Corylus is a grand slam. It is both delicious and extremely boozy so bring along a designated driver to avoid a DUI. They probably had 20 beers or more to pick from with a heavy emphasis on the IPAs--shocker, I know. I am not a huge IPA guy but if it is good, it is good. The place is airy and comfortable. It is also family friendly. They offer a variety of empanadas, if you want some food with your beer. We tried a few of them and the ham and cheese version was the clear winner. Honestly, the empanadas were nothing special and, my guess is, they were originally frozen. I eat a ton of frozen food so I am not being critical of frozen foods, ok? I liked them but I didn't love them. Parking on the weekend is extremely tough in Carlsbad but the nearby train station has a parking lot that stretches for miles. I imagine it is supposed to be used only for train customers but everyone parks there and it is freeeeeee. Very nice beer and very comfortable environment. They also offer a number of refrigerated canned beers for sale.

    Lauren is the reason I'm writing this review. She works the taproom at Pure Project Carlsbad and…read moreshe's just the best. Always smiling, genuinely happy to be there, and she knows every beer on the list inside and out. She'll take her time walking you through the tap list, no rushing, even on a busy night. Talking to her is genuinely one of the best parts of coming here. The rest of the staff at this location is great too, but Lauren is just especially great. And the beer backs it all up. Best beer we've had anywhere, not just San Diego, not just California. Between the beer and Lauren, this is our go-to spot. If you're in north county, go. And hope Lauren's working when you do!

The beer selection is outrageous. What Carlsbad brewery Brewing Company has on tap on its own is great. And they have pages of other beers, everything you could imagine. It's also right by Palomar Airport, so you can see a few planes come in. If you're a beer lover, or just want a good meal, this is a great place to go. I'll be coming back again, and again, and again.

Came here for lunch with a coworker and he was raving about the Wagyu sliders so I just had to try them. And yes, they are truly amazing as you can have them cooked as you like it. The bun was fresh and paired well with a generous slider patty of 100% grass fed New Zealand Kobe Wagyu Beef and topped with cheddar jack cheese. You can really taste the quality and juiciness of the patty. The sliders are pretty filling and will leave you stuffed. I opted for the onion rings and I am glad I did as the batter was crispy and onions thick cut, very delicious. Service was great and attentive and I recommend any burger or slider fans to try the Kobe Beef Sliders, they are very tasty and worth the visit to Carlsbad Brewing Company.

    Everyone has been telling me this place is about to close and I am SOOOO SAD that it's true!! The…read morelast day they will be open is Fri, November 13. I plan to come here as many times as I can as I have never seen a brewery this beautiful and to be truthfully, I wanna live here lol. This place is just gorgeous, when you walk in, the main room just opens up into this beautiful spacious BIG room with so much natural light that it floors you on just how beautiful this place is! There is also an outdoor area and oh my! It was like a botanical garden here and they also have a fountain where they have fish swimming in it. A worker here was about to feed the fish when we showed up and asked some kids dining outside with their parents if they wanted to help feed the fish. How awesome! We were a party of 10 and got sat at an outside table. It was just a lovely afternoon to experience this venue. I ordered a habanero margarita and asked that the tequila be substituted with mezcal and that was doable. This drink was OK and next time, I might just get a beer. I had the poke nachos again and wow they were so good. I could eat this every day lol. A few other friends also ordered this dish too. Its popular and I can see why. We had a lovely time here and I am so glad I got to experience this place before it closes. NOOOOOO! I certainly hope it is just temporary and they continue to do something fun with this place. Truly a gem in Escondido! I loved it!

But the beer flight was enough for me. The FOOD was also very tasty!! We weren't that hungry coz we just came back from Safari Park. We already had food at the elephant valley restaurant there so we were only planning to get some drinks and snacks. We got the buffalo wings and their bolognese pasta. It was SO good that we will come back soon even though we live like an hour away. Sad news is that they're closing in November :( So go get your food and drinks before they close down. It was such a great place to relaxed before we hit traffic after the Safari Park! And they're super dog friendly too! Bonus point for sure! Even though we didn't have our dogs with us.
