Mission Brewery
A 'pedestrian' photo journey from Coronado to the brewery and back, when you plan to have a few ales including a couple of Shipwreck IPA's and don't drive.....  

So the walk to the ferry, the surprise of the spontaneous water-jet pack and Pirate ship interaction on the way across to the 5th Ave Pier, a stroll past the Midway and through Seaport Village across the new, VERY expensive, pedestrian overpass, diagonally across a Petco parking lot to the brewery.

A little 'Tour' of the Brewery which is located at 14th and 'L' Street (1441 L Street) across from Petco Park.

At this time there is no food and the growler project is in progress, on the up side, you are welcome to bring both your two and four legged friends with you!

I enjoyed a few tastes ($1) and pints ($5 ALL except $7 for the Shipwreck IPA), then back to the Convention Center terminal of the water taxi, back to Coronado, a bite to eat with a cold one at Village Pizzeria, then home.
