1. HAMILTON’S TAVERN 1521 30th Street – Golden Heights area

To be honest, everyone of these twenty-one beer bars could be in the top spot for different reasons, according to personal style and taste. Apologies to any other great bars left off this list. Take the twenty-one challenge to decide for yourself. Hamilton’s Tavern gets the top spot because they have twenty-eight tap handles and a 2-cask beer engine, plus they were the very first licensed beer tavern in San Diego. Hours are M-F 3pm to 2am, and Sat/Sun 1pm to 2am.
