Karl Strauss Brewery & Grill - San Diego

  • Description:

    • Brewmaster Karl Strauss put San Diego on the microbrewery map with this attractive factory setting, now all but engulfed by the adjacent W Hotel. The smell of hops and malt wafts throughout, and the stainless-steel tanks are visible from the bar. Brews on tap range from pale ale to amber lager. Five-ounce samplers are $1.75 each (or six for $6.95); if you like what you taste, 12-ounce glasses, pints, and hefty schooners stand chilled and ready. Nonalcoholic beer and wine are available by the glass. They've dressed up the lunch and dinner menu (Cajun fries, hamburgers, German sausage, and other bar foods) with items like mango chicken salad and top sirloin. Beer-related memorabilia and brewery tours are available. Other locations include La Jolla, 1044 Wall St. (tel. 858/551-2739), and Carlsbad, 5801 Armada Dr. (tel. 760/431-2739).

      Great beer and food pairings

    • A lot of breweries do well with their beer and ok with their food. Karl Strauss gets both right. Can't go wrong with their homemade mac and cheese dishes, beer-battered fish...
