Culture Brewing Company

Solana Beach, CA
Pete - I went to the Encinitas location on a Tuesday afternoon. That turned out to be great timing, as they have 3 tasters for $3 on "Taster Tuesdays". Obviously, they offer tasters. They also have full pours and cans to go. They had about 12-15 beers on tap. Unfortunately, essentially all of them were quite mediocre in my opinion.
