The Belly Up Blonde, Inclusion Amber, Stout Resistance, Fort Ord Wheat, Legend of Laguna IPA are only the beginning. Seasonal and special brews like the incredible ACME Stout and Ginger Ale flow too – at more and more places like Turn 12, Post No Bills and Taste of Monterey, in addition to Peter B’s HQ – the mug club kicks down deals, growlers make for portable values and brewer dinners deliver mad paired flavor. Speaking of beginning, you get the feeling, despite all the action already, that brew master Kevin Clark is just getting started.
