slowsmoke Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Modern Times brewery, based in San Diego. May be mostly California thing, but they seem to be rapidly growing. They started with a saison called Loma Land, and just about everything they make is gold. They have a red called Blazing World that has become one of my absolute favorite cigar pairings lately. It is funky and malty, and goes wonderfully with a good maduro like a Padron 1964. Anyone here tried them? If not, I highly recommend keeping an eye out for anything they make.

earthson Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Is this similar to that "Simple Times" garbage water sold by Trader Joe's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowsmoke Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 No, completely different. I am very familiar with both lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a great way to end the night when your tongue is numb and you need to sober up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern Times is true craft beer. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it at Trader Joe’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokenWhisky Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 back in 2016 on a trip to So Cal I basically tried everything they had to offer. All beers were good but nothing really blew me away. I was quite surprised to see shortly after that their beer being available in Canada. That seems like some pretty quick expansion. I'm not sure if they got bought out by a bigger brewer like a lot of the other craft beers from the US that we end up seeing on the shelves here??

slowsmoke Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 To my knowledge they are still independent. The cans still say "employee owned." Their lineup has increased tenfold over the past few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter4alia Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 First experience with them yesterday. Space ways. Count me a fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
