Today’s five questions are with Sid Mikhail of Best Damn Beer Shop<\/a> and the soon-to-open Best Damn Brew Mart, which are both located inside Super Jr. Market in downtown San Diego. Sid is also throwing a “Best Damn Sour Fest” next Saturday night at Bootlegger’s<\/a>\u00a0downtown that’ll feature “traditional Flemish Sours, Guezes, Fruit Blended Lambics, American Wild Ales & a few special collaborative brews of tart character.” To see the beer list or buy tickets, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When do you expect to open Best Damn Brew Mart<\/a>?<\/strong>
\nWe want to have a soft opening mid-October and then the grand opening during Beer Week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How many types of grain will you have?<\/strong>
\n54, with lots of specialties.<\/p>\n

Hops?<\/strong>
\nThe list keeps growing; we’ll have the ones you see everywhere and well as unique varieties like those from Rogue’s hop farms<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Who will be managing the mart?<\/strong>
\nDamian Binder, a 20-year homebrewer who’ll be able to answer questions from beginner to advanced.<\/p>\n

For your sour festival next weekend, you’ve promised a “secret keg that will be epic.” Can you give us any clues?<\/strong>
\nIt’s sour…and, it’s fermented. You’ll have to be there to find out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
