      [Drinks]
      - Peach Lemonade: Very slight hint of peach flavor but tastes very similarly to a hi chew candy!
      - Yuzu Haru: Described as a hard sparking white tea. Although good, I wish there was a stronger note of Yuzu.
      - Watermelon Slushie: We were given this as a free tester since there weren't many people there today and the employee didn't want to waste the remaining. Delicious alcoholic watermelon slushie for a hot summer day!

      [Service]
      - Friendly, helpful, nice
      - Order at the bar and hang around where there's an open seat or around.

      [Ambiance]
      - Chill, spacious, friendly vibes.
      - Fun group games near or at the tables like Corn Hole, Uno, and other board games.
      - There's a small business located by the entrance that sells cute pins, stickers, keychains, and other accessories

      [Overall]
      - Would love to come back again as my friends and I had a great time here sipping our drinks and hanging out!

      Fun brewery in Miramar, on Production Ave just to the north of Miramar Road. Large warehouse type building with large beer vats, barrels, tables, and an outdoor "garden" patio. They have a great variety of beers/lagers/ales/cider and sodas. They don't serve food but they have a revolving set of food trucks so there is usually good food to go with the beer. Friendly staff and fun place to hang out with friends. Parking does get tight when they have events, but most of the nearby businesses are deserted to you can still find parking. Lots of noise from Miramar airbase with F-18c/d frequently taking off and landing. No issue with the USMC, but it does make it hard to have conversations or hold a more formal event.

      There was an anime micro-con going on that I saw on IG and decided to check it out as I wanted to check out as there was a brewery.

      It's located in an industrial area with warehouses around, sharing its location with BizBaz boba on Production Ave in between Mira Mesa and Sorrento Valley. There's a small parking lot with ample stalls.

      I got their Mango Palmer which was a 5% hard tea, and wow! It was a dangerous drink LOL. I couldn't taste any alcohol whatsoever and the tea itself was very smooth. There was also another drink I wanted to try that had kiwi in it. Definitely will be back to try that in the future!

      This brewery seems to have really good selections of alcohol that other places may not have like hard tea, hard kombucha, etc. Luckily, it's near my home! Will be back in the future.

      I love Embolden! The beer and the tasting room are top-notch in my book.

      I've been here a few times now and each time was a grand success. The first time we came, we had another event to go to in the area so we decided to pop in and see what Embolden is all about. As soon as we stepped in we were like, "This is pretty cool".

      A good variety of drinks alcoholic and non- beer, hard teas, hard seltzers, hard kombucha, Tepache, and my local favorite, Preston's Ginger Beer, set the scene for what was a great afternoon/evening. They've even got a boba shop, Biz Baz Boba, inside that will satisfy those looking for a little something extra in terms of beverages. I'm a huge fan of Hazy IPAs and I've been very pleased with Embolden's libations. Oh, they've got some cool merch too.

      Embolden has a large indoor and outdoor space, which makes them great for all seasons. The outdoor patio has a cool, vertical corn hole like game that kept a toddler and I pretty entertained for quite some time.

      There were two different food spots, one cart and one truck, that provided some nice options for those looking to stuff their gullet with food and beverages.

      Although parking can be tight, there is plenty of street parking that is a short walk from the front door.

      Oh I must mention that they also have these really really cool pop-up shops put on by Biz Baz Boba. We bought so much local art and pins. I highly recommend checking out the Biz Baz website for dates and times.

      Huge thanks to the lively and friendly crew at Embolden! Thanks for making Embolden and New Motion a cool place to hang.

      Nice selection of beers and a cool location. I especially liked their barrel aged stout, and hesitantly (I'm not a fan of pastry stouts) the blueberry pastry stout as good too. Lots of barrels with beer aging in them that I look forward to trying. The place is a bit off the path but they have a nice outdoor area too. It was raining when we went so we stayed inside.

      Barrel aged Seltzer? Not a Seltzer fan myself but It would be interesting to try this for sure!

      Barrel Aged Seltzer?  Maybe this is the seltzer that will change my mind about it?
      Outside area looks great, too bad it's rainy season is SD (Didn't know we had one).

      Brave the Haze, Living in a Haze, Midnight Tokyo, All I's on me, and of course their excellent pepperoni pizza! Among these All I's on me was the best :) (as an ipa lover)

      We stopped by to visit a friend during a car show/event over the weekend. It was very busy. Cars and a few vendor tents outside and quite a few vendors set up inside the venue. The bar area was packed but the staff was very friendly and quick to help. Even though there were so many people they made sure to check-in with us, see if we need anything (including refills). The inside is spacious, plenty of bar top seating/standing area plus there is a very spacious exterior area with a good amount of seating (picnic style seating). It is a great location for an event and I can imagine the possibility of a band playing on the weekend. My husband got a lighter beer and really enjoyed it.

      There are a few other places around, Embolden is in a great location to grab a drink sit and chat then possibly mosey on over to check out a few other places in the area. Great location!

      Came here with my bf and dog on a Saturday and I was honestly surprised it wasn't busy. I think this place is def new but it has so much potential to bringing the crowds in!! The outdoor patio is so well decorated, has plenty of tables and they play great music!! I was totally vibing with everything. Indoor space is also great, it's super spacious with a couple of bigger tables and seating.

      In terms of drinks, there's a lot beers, hard seltzers, hard tea and even spiked icee drinks to choose from! My BF likes sours so he got the vol 7 drink and I got a a lager. Both were good with 10 oz being $5.50 each. I kinda wish there was more selection of sours (maybe one other one) to help even out the beer types. Aside from that there's plenty of other things on the menu to satisfy anyone!

      There's also a good stand here outside. I think it was serving Mexican food! Not sure if they rotate the food but it was smelling pretty good. I'll have to give it a try.

      It's summertime so it's time for outdoor happy hours in San Diego. This is tucked away inside Miramar and has a half outside/half inside setup. It's huge so plenty of roaming around.

      Large variety of beers here including tart ones. Then some unique choiceslike hard kumbucha, hard teas and hard seltzers.

      Only bad point was that there was a korean/mexican fusion food truck and it was not very appetizing. Hopefully they rotate food choices.

      Cute wall art
      Great outside setup

      We had a long day of Brewery hopping in Miramar and Embolden was our last stop. We had such a good time in our short 45 minute stay; in hindsight, I wish it was our first stop.

      They closed at 2100 on this night, and we walked in at 2015... the two beautiful ladies running the bar this night were very knowledgeable and helped us pick out a couple of beers before they closed. Our time here was made great by the delicious beers they have. This is a very awesome brewery!
