Central Coast Brewing Monterey Street American Pale Ale 16oz
Hey there, hop heads and beer enthusiasts! Let me tell you about a local legend - Monterey Street Pale Ale from right here in downtown San Luis Obispo.
This isn't just any pale ale, my friends. We're talking about a three-time medal winner at the Great American Beer Festival. Gold in 2015, silver in 2016, and back to gold in 2017. Talk about a winning streak!
Now, if you're into the new school of American Pale Ales, this beer is gonna rock your world. It's got this amazing hop called Mosaic that's taking the craft beer scene by storm. One sip and you'll see why - it's like a flavor explosion of tropical fruits and zesty citrus in your mouth!
But don't worry, it's not all about the hops. The brewers have done this clever thing with the malt blend. It gives the beer this subtle toasty foundation that plays so nicely with those bold hop flavors. It's like they're doing a little dance on your taste buds.
At 5.5% ABV, it's got just enough kick to keep things interesting without knocking you off your barstool. And it comes in these nice big 16oz cans, perfect for when you want to savor the experience.
You know, they named this beer after Monterey Street, where the brewery calls home. It's like they bottled up a little piece of SLO's history and spirit. Pretty cool, right?
So next time you're in the mood for a pale ale that's anything but pale in flavor, give Monterey Street a try. It's a must for hop lovers, but I bet even the hop-hesitant will find something to love here. Cheers!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
