Perhaps no demographic loves craft beer more than millennials, those folks born in the ’80s but too young to remember when MTV played music – or when craft beer was a cool new thing, for that matter. So it only makes sense that Alvarado Street Brewery is the top choice for both. Any night of the week you can find the restaurant/beer garden in Monterey and the hip tasting room in Salinas packed with skinny jeans and oversized glasses, everyone sipping on sours like “Naughty by Nectar” and IPAs like “Dude, Where’s My Haze?”
