Just drink beer in Pasadena

Head to the Stone Brewing Tap Room near the Del Mar Station to taste the goods before grabbing a pizza at the Luggage Room to quell the munchies. For big pretzels, roasted artichoke, and a huge list of brews, including IPAs, Congregation Ale House on Raymond and Del Mar is awaiting your presence.
Celebrate Latin culture with Martin Quinones at Cerveceria del Pueblo, where the beers are made with ingredients that bring you closer to the flavors of Colombia. Want something not very German, but still very much focused on beer? Dive into Korean drinking culture at Urban Pocha in Old Pasadena, and don't forget to try their Korean fried chicken.
