Modern Times Lomaland Fermentorium

Food is delicious drink are great service was outstanding would go again. Love how they have flights of beer so you can different one. Love how decoration on the walls are old schools.

I've always passed by the North Park location so I was very excited to finally check out the main Modern Time location here. The warehouse setting has high ceilings and a nice interior that is great for large groups. They also had a vinyl record store and a mini mart which I think are both cool touches. They also had some board games that you could play. I got several pours but the highlight for me was definitely the Fruitlands which is their passion fruit guave gose. Really refreshing with a great fruity flavor. We got here within 1 hour of closing and so it wasn't too crowded and were able to order our drinks right away. All in all this is a nice spot to grab some drinks!

Loved coming here to mothership location. Staff here is super chill and accommodating letting you try beers before you make your selection. The beers here definitely live up to the hype, and this brewery is definitely one of the best in west coast! Had the Zipline ipa monstar's park vanilla stout. Highly recommend getting since those are the only 2 they don't serve outside the brewery. As an IPA lover, it's in my top 5 IPAs with Ballast Point 10 Barrel Brewing from Portland

Full disclosure: this was not the brewery we'd set out to spend the evening at. But, through my own incompetence and impatience to order an Uber Pet, I accidentally selected the wrong Modern Times location, and didn't realize it until we were almost at the front door. Oopsie They are dog-friendly, which is a bonus. But neither of us really got the warm fuzzies from this place. They have an open seating area with lots of tables and chairs, plus a smaller outdoor seating area. I'm not entirely sure what left us feeling a bit off about this spot, though. If forced, I'd say it was the lack of friendliness from the guys working the taps that night. They weren't rude or anything, but neither were they super welcoming. Each time we went up for a refill we had to wait for them to stop their conversations with friends at the bar to get our drink orders in. I know that sounds so small, but with all the great breweries in San Diego, and with all the friendly and welcoming beertenders working said breweries, it just felt like a let-down to be in a brewery with guys who didn't really care about you if they didn't know you. And also, the beer that I really wanted went out on my first pour, so I couldn't even drink the drink I went to drink.

I have been fortunate enough to have lived next door to a beer bar and bottle shop in Arizona that has Modern Times beer products on their menu. It's how I learned about them. On my most recent trip to San Diego, I decided to check out their tasting room. I love the beer here at Modern Times. They've been brewing it since 2013 and they roast coffee too. My two loves beer and coffee under one roof. This tasting room is very spacious and is located near Old town. There is the bar and a mini mart where you can grab some products to go. For parking, you can park on any of the streets nearby. We ordered a flight so we could sample a few beers we haven't tried yet. The Orderville is such a great tasting IPA. I also grabbed some nitro coffee to go. Modern Times makes some good beer and they've grown much in their ten years of existence. This was a great stop for happy hour and I look forward to grabbing more products back at my bottle shop back home.
