Brewery Hopping in Temecula
We recently connected with Russell and Emily of the @thebeertravelguide when they were down exploring the Temecula brewery scene. They definitely made the rounds and put together a thorough recap over on their blog: Beer Travel Guide
Temecula, California is best known for Wine Country, a luxurious stretch of Temecula Valley filled with wineries, high-end food, spas, and visitors looking for an opulent and boozy escape from humdrum reality. However, we didn’t visit for the wine in July— this isn’t, after all, The Wine Travel Guide. We’re pleased to report that Temecula and its neighbor to the north, Murrieta, are also transforming… into Beer Country. Four years ago, during our last visit, you could count the number of craft brewery taprooms on one hand. Now there’s over a dozen in a mere five-mile stretch— which is heaven to us brewery hoppers.
We hit most every brewery in the area on our recent visit, so we’d like to start with some words of wisdom…
