Helm\u2019s Brewing opened its doors in 2012. Founded by a homebrewer and associates from his primary career, the company\u2019s first head brewer was Brian Mitchell<\/strong>, who went on to work as a small-batch brewer for Stone Brewing<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0before opening his own project, Pariah Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a>, at North Park\u2019s Brewery Igniter <\/strong><\/a>complex on El Cajon Boulevard earlier this year. Under Mitchell and subsequent brewing personnel, Helm\u2019s\u2019 beer quality has fluctuated, leading to something of a hit-or-miss reputation among consumers. Still, the company was able to add a satellite tasting room in 2016, becoming the third to open in now satellite-saturated Ocean Beach.<\/p>\n

The OB tasting room, which is located at the corner of Newport Avenue and Cable Street (the same block as tasting rooms for Belching Beaver Brewery<\/strong><\/a>, Culture Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a> and Kilowatt Brewing Company<\/strong><\/a>) will be included as an acquired asset should Helm\u2019s sell. Among attributes listed for that venue in the company’s solicitation communique are the fact it faces the neighborhood’s Wednesday farmer\u2019s market and \u201chas posted strong revenue numbers through its first year-and-a-half in existence.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
