This is the second in a four-part series of weekly roundups listing the most promising work-in-progress, brewery-owned projects in San Diego County. Over the past two weeks, we have taken a look at the North County<\/strong><\/a>. This time around, we are focusing on East County.<\/p>\n

Council Brewing<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> Brewery owners Liz and Curtis Chism<\/strong> are returning to the community they once called home, reconfiguring the former home of Finest Made Ales <\/strong>(and before that, Twisted Manzanita Ales<\/strong>) to meet their needs. This second facility will provide significantly increased capacity for production of the clean beers in their portfolio (they are also known for their barrel- and fouder-aged ales), plus a spacious tasting room for customers to sample them. The latter soft-opens this\u00a0Wednesday, May 9 at 2 p.m.<\/strong>, exactly four years to the day and hour that their original Kearny Mesa tasting room opened to the public.\u00a0| 9962 Prospect Avenue, Suite E, Santee<\/em><\/p>\n

Julian Beer Co.<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> Pizza Port <\/strong><\/a>co-founder Vince Marsaglia <\/strong>is in the home stretch after overhauling his brewpub. In doing so, he\u2019ll keep key attributes, including delicious barbecue, a barn offering live music performances, and an in-house brewery. The latter has upgraded equipment and will now specialize in farmhouse-style ales, some of which will be made using ingredients grown on-site. The food program is also being expanded to include pizza and sandwiches. Marsaglia expects to open the doors to getawayville visitors next month. | 2315 Main Street,<\/em> Julian<\/em><\/p>\n

Creative Creature Brewing<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> El Cajon has had a rough go of it where breweries are concerned. Its first, the namesake El Cajon Brewing<\/strong>, failed miserably. Though that space was taken over by the successful URBN Pizza<\/strong><\/a>, the restaurant group knew nothing about running a brewery, leading them to shut it down. Now, a quartet of homebrewers have the keys to a small-but-capable spot, from which they are looking to craft beers both traditional and avant-garde, hopefully giving the city something it\u2019s never had\u2014a hometown brewpub it can depend on. Check back tomorrow for an article all about these newcomers.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0| 110 Magnolia Avenue,<\/em> El Cajon<\/em><\/p>\n
