Kristen from AleSmith is in this week to show off what they've been up to at 9990 AleSmith Court! We start things off with a twist on a recent brewery trend, Hop Water. This version of Hop Water has a twist, vodka. Hoptails Vokda Hop Water is huge on flavor and low AVB at 5% and is a perfect refresher in the Summer heat.

He saved the IPA for a Friday, Erik from Good Pressure is ending the week with their Good Pressure IPA. A blend of old school and new school San Diego IPAs. Plus, he's got a secret hop that he's using, curious what it is?

A coffee brown for Summer? Absolutely! Erik from Good Pressure likes to make flavorful beers that you can enjoy a few of, Pressure Profile takes all the notes of a malty coffee porter and folds it into a light drinkable brown ale which makes it favor another famous San Diego Beer.

With our proximity to Mexico, it's always nice to have a light malty beer on tap. Good with tacos or good after a hike along Mission Trails Good Pressure Amber is a perfect beer if you want some thing light and freshing that not just a fizzy yellow beer.

Six months ago I thought Erik was crazy for telling me that if Good Pressure only made one beer their Blonde would be it. But once I tried it, I understand why he made that claim.

At the start of 2026 I put them at the top of my new breweries to watch for the year! Now we check in as see what cooking for the summer at Good Pressure Brewing. Eric and Nelson drop by on a warm Monday afternoon with an example of how they are brewing up a little something for everyone with a Strawberry Lemonade Hard Seltzer.

Its almost a Greek tragedy that this beer isn't an year round offering at Duck Foot Brewing. But when It's around I drink my fair share! Just in time for the 11th Anniversary tomorrow we wrap up a week of beers with Brett and Matt with the Crossing Wizard IPA. Brett also tells the story that this beer has a real life San Diegan as inspiration.

Don't let the dark fool you in this beer! It's getting warm out and darker beers can be just as refreshing as a fizzy yellow lager. Duck Foot Brewing proves that point with their Darkwing Dunkel.

You don't think that all those Belgian monks are making beer just to support their monasteries, do you? With all that fantastic beer floating around some of it makes it's way to the lunch table. But since it's hard to focus on prayer and highly unsafe to brew while consuming a 12% ABV beer, the monks created a Belgian Table beer. Friar Duck give you all the fruity and clove flavors you'd expect from a larger Belgian beer but all wrapped up in non-day-wrecking 4%.

Why ask why? Drink Duck Dry! Matt and Bret from Duck Foot Brewing are back with another anytime summer beer, Duck Dry. Their Japanese style Rice Lager is crisp clean with a light floral note thanks to the rice. It's hard to hide any imperfections in a beer like this, lucky for us this beer is flawless.
