Award-winning
Southern California craft brewer to open in late 2018 with a
restaurant, brewery and beer garden
Opening marks
Downtown Disney® District's first-ever on-site brewery
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- San
Diego-based Ballast Point®, a pioneer in the craft beer
industry and one of the nation's leading craft breweries known for
high-quality, award-winning and innovative beers, today announced
the opening of a brewery, tasting room and kitchen in the Downtown
Disney® District at the Disneyland® Resort. The opening marks the
first-ever brewery for Downtown Disney. Opening in late 2018, the
7,000-sq. ft. space will house a three-barrel "research and
development" brewery, New American restaurant and outdoor beer
garden. This will be Ballast Point's first location in Orange
County and seventh in Southern California.
"As one of Southern California's premier brewers,
for the team at Ballast Point, we couldn't be more honored to work
with such an icon in our great state and become the first brewer at
Downtown Disney," said Marty Birkel, president of Ballast Point
Brewing Company. "We hope SoCal locals and visitors alike will
enjoy the wonderful atmosphere, seasonal cuisine, and good cheer
(and beer) of our signature tap room experience that we plan to
bring to Disney."
"We are thrilled to welcome Ballast Point to Downtown Disney," said
Patrick Finnegan, vice president of Disney California Adventure and
Downtown Disney. "Our guests are constantly asking for new and
innovative dining experiences, and Ballast Point's selection of
award-winning beers, locally inspired cuisine and friendly
atmosphere make them a perfect fit."
Along with its beers, the restaurant's menu will
also offer a taste of San Diego with some of its most popular
dishes from its brew pubs, including Baja-style fish tacos and a
house-made pretzel with beer mustard. Similar to Ballast Point's
brewing philosophy, the kitchen will only source the best possible
ingredients, including steroid and antibiotic-free proteins,
line-caught fish and local produce when available. The kitchen will
feature a seasonally inspired menu, with a focus on cuisine that
not only pairs well with the vast selection of beers, but
incorporates them in the recipes. The location will also offer a
children's menu, along with gluten-free and vegetarian options for
guests.
The location will be family-friendly, offering an
outdoor patio and large-party, cabana style seating, and visitors
21+ can enjoy many of Ballast Point's iconic beers including its
flagship and award-winning Sculpin® IPA, as well as exclusive,
custom, limited-edition beers available only at the Downtown Disney
location. Known for its unrelenting commitment to quality, unique
flavor profiles and a desire to bring great tasting beer to
consumers across the country, Ballast Point has been dedicated to
the craft of brewing for more than 20 years.
The new Downtown Disney location further extends
Ballast Point's brand presence in Southern California and will
introduce its quality, great-tasting beer to visitors from around
the country and the world. Ballast Point currently operates six
tasting room locations in California, including Long Beach and
Little Italy in San Diego, and a new brewery and tasting room in
Daleville, Virginia. Coming soon, the brewer will also open a
brewery and kitchen in Chicago - its first in the Midwest.
About Ballast
Point
What started in 1996 as a small group of home brewers who simply
wanted to make great beer evolved into the team of adventurers
known today as Ballast Point. From bringing a hoppy twist to a
porter, or adding four types of malt to its amber ale, to creating
the breakthrough gold-medal winning Sculpin IPA, the San
Diego-based company is known for adding its own touch and asking if
there's a better way. Now an internationally recognized leader in
the craft brewing industry with 7 brewery locations in California
and Virginia, the company makes over 50 styles of beer and
