A First Look at the San Diego Toronado
by @ 10:06 pm. Filed under Events, California, San Diego, Brewery Visit, Photo Gallery, Other Events

The well-known Toronado bar in San Francisco is coming to San Diego … soon. Rumored for almost two years, I attended a reception Thursday afternoon at the new location currently under construction at 4026 30th Street in San Diego’s North Park. If all goes according to plan, it should be open with the next month.

Fal Allen, with San Diego Toronado owner Ian Black. Ian worked at the Toronado in San Francisco for some time before moving to San Diego.


Dave Keen, owner of the Toronado in San Francisco, was on hand and pouring Duvel for Ian and a packed house of revelers.

Just For Fun

"Time grows dim. Time that was so long
grows short, time, all goggle-eyed,
wiggling her skirts, singing her torch song,
giving the boys a buzz and a ride,
that Nazi Mama with her beer and sauerkraut.
Time, old gal of mine, will soon dim out.

 
   — Anne Sexton
