Cozy little brewery and tap room! They have live music (not sure how often) and various beers on tap (and for purchase). No food on premises but you can bring your own! Very nice staff and family friendly!

Came here on a late Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The parking lot was pretty full. I only got one beer and I hated that they didn't offer smaller sizes. I was brewery hopping so having a whole pint wasn't ideal. I got the Artefexican lager and it was just okay. I hated that I had to drink the whole thing. If not for that I would've gotten to try more beers. They did have a good food vendor on site. They also had live music.

Fantastic! My review is a little delayed but during our visit, the brewery had a food truck and a small boutique market in the back part of the parking lot. The food truck had amazing food and the retail stalls were awesome. I tried one of the sour beers, it was good but I am not much of a beer drinker. The husband and friends really enjoyed their beers though. The place was clean and the ladies manning the bar were nice, funny, and professional.

Went here for the first time about 2 months ago. Enjoyed a citrus hazy IPA and some food from the truck that was there at the time. There was a group of boutique vendors there that day. Cool community event.

Wonderful micro brewery. Excellent beers with funny names like Unicorn Juice.

I just love this place! They have a fantastic spot which allows indoor or outdoor seating and they are dog friendly, which is a huge plus with me! Being a brewery, guess what, they specialize in beer lol, so I love getting the beer flight so I can taste four of my choice. They have quite a selection and you get to pick whatever you want and I have to admit I'll just crush them all, they're good. Slight drawback, they don't serve food, so usually it's a stop before or after dining for us, or just when you're out looking for a vibrant cool place with great people to have a few good beers and bring your dog. The service is always amazing and the bartenders are very friendly. Jazzy is the absolute best! We'll keep coming back and I hope you'll try it out.

The staff was patient with me considering my lack of knowledge in the realm of brewing. I was accommodated perfectly and the setting itself was conducive for conversation and relaxation.

Nice local place for craft brews. My favorite is the double IPA. Going to go back to try the other beers on the menu

The selection here is pretty good especially if you're an IPA enthusiast. They have some interesting flavors ( the checked out and show me your roots are solid choices) and have something for everyone. The aesthetic is nice and typical of a brewery. Overall a good spot to try out with quality beer!

I love this Brewery! They offer a variety of amazing beers fresh on tap so I recommend trying them all! They also have beers in cans to go if you would rather skip the grocery and liquor store’s stale and skunky collections. It opens at 2:00 pm and TACOS EL TIBURON provides awesome bites to complement the fresh brews until about 7:00 pm often. Tell them Katrina sent you lol. Dogs are welcome, so if you live in the area get out in the beautiful San Clemente weather and pick up some rays on the way walking over the hill.

One of my favorite places to grab a beer. Awesome amber and IPAs.

Sick brewery located in the hills of San Clemente. Artifex makes some great beers from IPA's to Mexican lagers. Servers do a great job of putting fresh beers and have great knowledge of their brews.

Beer was good, even though they said they were in transition and brewing some new beers. Our server was excellent and helped my wife feel welcomed and appreciated with pleasant conversation. Ambiance was great with outdoor seating and located in a business park away from the hustle and bustle. Great spot if you're ever in San Clemente

The blonde male was rude and had an attitude. Never going to this establishment again. I suggest you do the same
