Outside of watching the game, baseball enjoyment used to consist of eating a hot dog and drinking a bland, mass-produced beer. But that’s all changed, and Petco Park’s beverage offerings now reflect San Diego’s status as a craft beer emporium with local offerings that cater to unique and individual tastes, including those with a preference for wine or locally made spirits. Check out these top options.
A local beer for a local legend finds a home in Petco Park's Toyota Terrace Level. In addition to a tap list of amazing Alesmith core beers, .394 features San Diego Pale Ale .394, a beer brewed with input from the late Padre Hall of Famer, “Mr. Padre” Tony Gwynn.
Wines at the Park, presented by nearby Gaslamp Quarter restaurant Donovan's, is a classy way to grab a drink at a ballgame. With 38 selections of wine and a
rustic-chic interior, you might forget you're at a ballgame altogether.
Ballast Point Brewing Company is one of the big boys in the San Diego brewing scene. At The Draft, you can get one of its many popular beers on tap—including the world-renowned Sculpin IPA.
Located in the Toyota Terrace, you can grab a cocktail made with the spirits Fugu Vodka, Old Grove Gin and Three Sheets Rum distilled at Miramar's Cutwater Spirits.
This place is a shrine to the Craft Beer Capital. It features countless beers on tap, all from San Diego. You'll find the cornerstones of the beer scene (AleSmith Brewing Company, Coronado Brewing Company, Pizza Port Brewing Company), but also some of the small guys that are turning heads (Iron Fist Brewing Co., Mike Hess Brewing, Fall Brewing Company).
Located in the historic Western Metal Supply Co. building, you can grab a drink from their extensive menu and watch a few innings from the spectacular deck
view.
