Barrio Logan has long been a colorful bastion for the working-class Mexican and Chicano community in San Diego. Today it still holds strong to these roots, while embracing and also resisting aspects of change. Despite hotly debated questions surrounding gentrification, Barrio Logan is rapidly being recognized for much more than the world-class murals painted on the undercarriage of the Coronado Bridge. Long gone are the days of Barrio Logan being perceived as a strictly Mexican and industrial neighborhood. Barrio now embraces an ethnically diverse group of residents, artists, businesses, and institutions.
I think one of the first microbreweries in Barrio Logan. They sport a cool interior with a large outdoor area in the back. Blood Saison was pretty tasty, perfect for a hot spring or summer day. They have some interesting stouts, which I didn't get to try. Chocolate and Horchata stout. Tacos were pretty darn good while drinking a beer, but it's very hard to beat Salud's quality tacos across the street.
