History
We brewed our first batch on May 18th, 2013; our beer went on tap for the first time on June 24th 2013; and we held the soft opening for the Lomaland Fermentorium tasting room in Point Loma on August 9th, 2013; and our Grand Opening was September 7th, 2013. We now have rad places to drink beer, eat food, and bask in communal good vibes in Point Loma, North Park, Downtown Los Angeles, Portland, and, of course, Encinitas.
Specialties
North County Coastal, rejoice! Our Encinitas outpost of culinary and libational magic is officially a thing, and we could not be more thrilled to invite you to come in and hang out. Featuring a full menu of staggeringly delicious plant-based cuisine and over 30 taps of mind-bendingly tasty beer (plus guest beers & wines), the Far West Lounge is an elegant den of leisure and merriment that makes downtown Encinitas radder than it already is--which is no small feat. This new vortex of excellent vibes also features a full mini-mart where you can buy coffee, beer to go, and a host of sundry merchandise, each item sexier than the last. Once we've been open for a month or two, this spot will also serve as a beer pick-up spot for our highly-coveted membership club, the League of Partygoers & Elegant People. For more details & private event inquiries, please email SD-reservations@moderntimesbeer.com. We also offer crowler fills, and will happily fill blank 64oz. jug-style glass growlers. If you have another brewery's growler in the same style, we will fill it if it is covered by a Modern Times Freaker (growler jacket) or sticker.
