    Hawaiian Dog
    Becky L.

    My favorite Brewery in San Diego!!! They have a chill psychedelic vibe. There are draft beers, slushies, cocktails, a food menu, and even a Speakeasy!! There are plenty of events like parking lot parties, Brew Doodle, trivia, live music, and so much more! The owner and the entire staff team is amazing and make you feel at home. With multiple locations around San Diego, there's no excuse to not come here!

    Amazing Anniversary Event and Great Vibes! Went for the anniversary event and Convoy Nights, and it was such a blast! Kilowatt really knows how to throw a great event. I tried the pineapple sour, which was light, refreshing, and super tasty. Despite the busy and chaotic atmosphere, the staff were incredibly patient and courteous, which made the experience even better. I love the vibe of the place as it's fun, welcoming, and full of energy. I'll definitely be back during a non-event time for a more relaxed visit. Highly recommend!

    Chocolate Macadamia Stout

    I came in and grabbed a beer and some tacos on an early Friday evening. The place is super cool with a great vibe to it - lots of lights and fun little details. I got two tacos for $5 each and they were both good, though pretty small for the price. I loved the spam taco but I do think they could be bigger. They have a nice beer selection and while I was there I tried a sour and a stout which were both great. I liked how they offer taster sizes of the beers if you just want to try one. Overall, it's a fun place to hang out and it was lively but not too crowded which was nice!

    I have been here twice and both times have been disappointing. I was looking forward to visiting this brewery since we enjoy Kilowatt and Space Pad in Oceanside. We've had the same young lady both times we've visited this location assist us. Whenever I've asked for a "splash" to try something, it has always seemed like an inconvenience. Also, my sour beer tasted like soap. I'm not sure if the cup wasn't rinsed out correctly, but I had my husband try it as well and he agreed. I won't be back to this location, which is unfortunate because I really wanted to try their speakeasy.

    Pretzel bites
    Norma D.

    I'm met up with some friends here. We were able to use the back room for privacy. They offer lots of games to entertain everyone. They also offer some food options so we had the nachos & pretzel bites. The nachos weren't okay didn't come hot. The pretzels were good. If you're looking for a casual place to meet up with your friends, try this place. The staff were very nice. We were there on a Saturday night and it didn't get busy till around 9:30pm.

    We love this place and our dog does too! Everyone is always so friendly! Really good food and drinks. And super accommodating. We are vegetarian and they modify things so we can enjoy them as well!

    This place is a treat... surely a different experience vs the Ocean Beach location as I assume the owner has had a thrill decorating it. Love the lights that hang over the bar, they look like fireworks in each bulb and they have a hidden bar at this location. We found out about it via YouTube and hope to come back soon to see the hidden bar.

    Christmas ale taster

    My most favorite brewery in all of San Diego! I am a Dark & Belgian fan, but they have everything here. IPAs, Sours (for you weirdos, LOL), Lagers, Blondes, Hard Seltzers, and a boozy slushie of the day. My go-to is the Chocolate Macadamia Stout, but I also like their Brew for Ukraine (all proceeds from this beer sale go to Ukraine). If they still have some around, you should ask for a sample of their Christmas ale. OB Bubble Dubbel is also a solid Belgian choice. Plenty of board games to play with your friends. Good music. Interesting local art. Nice picnic tables out front too for a sunny San Diego day.

    Beer and Poke Bowls. This is the spot! Trust me the food hits and the drinks hit! Thanks Jonny is the best bartender ever! All the drinks spot on! Beers selection is on point they have a bunch of awards too. They have other type of Hawaii food too. The spot is hawaii theme.

    I think this bar is definitely underrated! I went here Saturday night after going to Realms a 52 remedies. This is not known as a speak easy, it actually has a Speak Easy located inside, forbidden cove. Although the vibe of this Brewery is a disco speakeasy of itself! I feel like the vibe, and Decor transports you back into time. A very space and 90s kind of vibe. I was very impressed, as I did not know what to expect. We ordered a few beers before we went into the speakeasy. You can also order taster size beers if you want to essentially create your own flight. Really enjoyed the aesthetic, music, and environment. I think it's a fun place to go on a date, or a night out with the friends. I definitely would go back.

    I don't visit this location often, but when I do, I always have a chill time. It's pretty dark inside, which is a little different for a brewery, but that's cool to be different. They have a lot of outdoor seating in the front and enough seating inside the brewery. I usually stick to the chocolate macadamia stout, and I know they have other delicious beers, but I really like that one. The bar tenders are chill, and they let you be.

As we parked I realized this was the former location for Council Brewing (RIP - I liked their bourbon barrel aged stout btw). Other than the large wooden council table removed and obvious branding & decor changes, the general layout looked familiar. We received a warm, friendly welcome from Remy, who shared the brewery concept and backstory. Sampled beers from their list of six offerings and said we would return. Additional return visits and fast forward to 2026 with Hopnonymous Brewing doing quite well. The front patio is built out with additional seating, table space, and another tv screen to accommodate beer loving sports fans. The rotating food truck and pop-up kitchen schedule offers a variety of eats in with Trivia Tuesdays. Hop beertenders are very nice and a positive reflection of Remy's hospitality. Customer service is key. Until next time...Cheers!
