Alvarado Street Brewing Company is fresh and appealing to millennials for its inclusive atmosphere. Their young, approachable staff are genuinely knowledgeable about a rotating selection of unique and consistently high-quality drafts they serve. The high tables are within close enough distance from other patrons for exchanges with potential new friends (no smartphones needed, just old-fashioned conversation—an art that yes, even millennials possess) while still allowing enough separation for more intimate conversations. And the playlists delve just deep enough into a breadth of decades and genres to perk up the pierced ears of 20-somethings.
