Three more San Diego Breweries Visited

Checked off three more San Diego breweries on the current list of 70. Visited Indian Joe Brewing up in Vista first. They had  a nice Hazelnut Chocolate Stout and a nice American Indian IPA that I liked #10 on this list.

Next up was Belchin Beaver Brewery and they had Ol' Dirty Barrel a RIS aged in Rye Bourbon barrels for 7 months. Nice flavor and not too overpowering on the bourbon taste.

Next was Stumblefoot Brewing Co. and they had Otay Chipotle Stout which had a mild heat that went well with the stout flavour.
