Green flash not only has great beer and food trucks, but the events they throw are the best!

I've been to their trivia night which was really fun as well as their treasure chest rare beer party. Well put together events and the staff you can tell really enjoy what they do.

Must try in sorrento...

Excellent brewery with a massive selection of high quality beer. Tried many different types from Belgian dark ales to double IPAs to lagers and found them all to excellent. Great patio. A small variety of food bites are available from the food truck outside. Service is only at the bar in the tap...

Green Flash, one of the more successful craft breweries outside San Diego, though recently acquired by Alpine Brewing, still brews a tasty beer. The brewery is yet another of the warehouse breweries in what feels like a never ending office park north of San Diego, but the secluded beer garden with a...

Fantastic beer selection, affordable prices, and great service. We met here for a few tasters before getting on the free shuttle to Cellar 3, their Poway outpost. We had received conflicting information about the shuttle departure time and the Green Flash staff was fantastic about correcting the mis...

Great tasting room, pretty easy parking and easy to find. Seams to bring in a friendly crowed and there looks to be a food truck on site most of the time (didn't try but looked good). If you're not into the IPA scene like myself not to worry, they still have a lot of great alternatives, I enjoyed "...

First off, I'm a HUGE fan and consumer of Green Flash brews.
A couple BIG no-no's that are easy to correct and I give this place a 5.
1) they have a smoking section(!!) on the patio...right by the food truck and not really away from the rest of the general public and only separated by a waist high...

Pays to have connections! Rolled up a few hours before they were open (because we forgot to check *facepalm*) and still managed to squeeze a quick tour and tasting in! Great to see where Green Flash is made. Was able to try a new (to me) variety on site as well. The Palate Wrecker Imperial IPA, gr...

The beer here is delicious! There is a huge selection. Food outside from a truck is also tasty. They have a bar for tasting, a gift shop and a bar to fill your growlers. They always have a special beer that is half off to fill your growler. They also have marked down beer that one can get a dea...

Great beer and location
Green Flash is definitely still here and, if anything, there seems to be more brewing equipment than when I visited last (a year ago). They had some of the cellar 3 barrel aged beers, alpine IPAs and both new + old favorites from the Green Flash range. Captive food truck out...

Fun local spot with good crossover for beer geeks and their more "normal" friends. The rotating food truck lineup makes for good variety, and the mixed indoor/outdoor tasting area is large enough to accommodate the frequently large and enthusiastic crowds. Always lots of energy there! Liking a p...

No issues here! The beer isn't even expensive! I was expecting to pay significantly more. Also, forget the price, the brews here are fantastic. Even if you don't enjoy all the styles they have, you'll find something that you enjoy because they have at least 25 different brews.

Excellent place to come for beer tasting.
4 oz. tasters are $1. It's so cheap and you can get pretty buzzed after a few tasters. I really like the West Coast IPA and the Palate Wrecker.
The atmosphere is super chill and I love that they play 90s hip hop and r&b.

Great quality beers at Green Flash! They have many different beer on tap from both the Green Flash and Alpine brands. Most beers here are IPAs, but they have other varieties too.
There is also a Green Flash food truck at the facility where you can get some food to eat while you hang out. They are a...

Big space so it's great for groups meeting up. Beer is high alcohol content and super cheap, plus they have half glasses and tasters and they'll give you a little splash if you're just trying to decide on your full pour. I loved the Trippel but I'm not crazy about hoppy beers. There's no food, but I...

$5.50 for full pours, $2.75 for half pours, and $1.50 for tasters of on tap beers. "Rare" beers come in half pour ($5.50) and taster ($2.75) sizes. On-site food truck has burgers (beef, chicken, veggie), cuban and other sandwiches/sliders, mac and cheese, fries, street corn.

I love Greenflash. . .and even though the reduced the variety of food you can get (they now have their own food truck and don't typically bring in outside vendors anymore) they still have amazing food and a great atmosphere. Even when it's crowded it seems I can always get a beer really quickly.

I love this brewery! The Trippel is amazing, I can't believe it's as strong as it is. The staff is always very friendly. I love trying new things every time I'm there. The growler pricing is good, and the overall prices are great. It's the best when they have a special on a beer. Give them a shot!

Great tasting room and a really enjoyable tour. The tour was $6.50 but it comes with enough samples to make it worth it! Our tour guide was great and the beer was really tasty. They do have a food truck outside that has some good options if you're hungry.

Great tasting beer. They have lots of different types of beers on tap. If you have time, you can try the tour for only $6.50 which gets you 4 tasters and tour of the facilities. This should be on your stops if your visiting San Diego.

Used to be my favorite, but not anymore. There are just too many other great spots to drink now!

Way too crowded at the bar and hard to find a place to sit and eat my expensive pizza (that was totally worth the $12 actually, probably the best pizza i've ever had).

Even worse was the selection ...

Beers tasted alright, nothing that blew my mind. Also, they're not open late and they're quick to get you off their patio. The lady behind the counter thought I should limit myself to 4 tasters, which equated to one pint of beer... Not the best experience, but I guess others had better.

It's odd to see breweries in office buildings, but once you're inside, this is a cool brewery. They have a lot of beer options, mostly IPAs (which Is why I don't care for it much). Beers are cheap and they have even cheaper tasters, so you can try several without committing to a pint. You can ask fo...
