The editorial take
Rincon Brewery runs a California craft brewery, restaurant, and tap room with a core beer portfolio and rotating seasonal releases. The house list names Beached Hazy IPA, La Reina Lager, Indicator IPA, Rincon IPA, and Merrick Lager, covering hazy and West Coast IPA plus lager styles. Guests are encouraged to sample beers on tap, and a 20oz michelada is listed at $9 on the NFL Sunday menu. Customers describe the beer selection as a reason to visit. The nonalcoholic side is thin but includes a 10oz orange juice at $5.
- What should I order?
- Start with Beached Hazy IPA for juicy citrus and a soft mouthfeel, then compare it against Rincon IPA, a light, dry West Coast take with lemon zest and pine resin. Merrick Lager is the crisp, carb- and gluten-reduced option. The taproom encourages sampling, so build a flight across the IPA and lager styles.
