This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

This is probably the most in-depth look at the San Diego's craft beer industry and history. I stumbled upon it because it was put on continuous run at the Balboa Park's Bottled & Kegged: San Diego's Craft Brew Exhibition. The makers interview all the major players - AleSmith, Pizza Port, Ballast point, Stone, Karl Strauss, Green Flash, and many others. They trace the steps of how San Diego because the US beer capital in one decade and wins more medals than other cities, states, or whole countries in the World Beer Cups. If you are interested in the San Diego beer scene and how the IPA's became so hoppy, this is a worthy film. Cheers!
