San Diego's City Tacos releases first beer Blessed City Hazy IPA, a collaboration with Mike Hess Brewing

Brew is exclusively being served on draft at City Tacos’ seven San Diego locations

SAN DIEGO, CA – San Diego’s City Tacos, celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2024, has collaborated with Mike Hess Brewing to release its first ever beer Blessed City Hazy IPA. The brew is available on draft exclusively at City Tacos’ seven San Diego County locations. Founder Gerry Torres made announcement.

Blessed City is 7.0% alcohol-by-volume (ABV) and has tasting notes of fresh citruses. Pints sell for $7.00, and 10 percent of proceeds will be donated to local charities.

“For the name we wanted to show how we feel about where we live,” Torres said. “We are certainly blessed to call America’s Finest City our home. It’s heavenly, really. We can’t thank our longtime friends at Mike Hess enough for collaborating on this special project. We believe the beer will pair well with any of our nearly 20 tacos on the menu.”

Torres is originally from Mexico City, and he moved to San Diego in 1992. In June of 2022, he became a United States citizen in a ceremony held at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office in downtown.

City Tacos originally opened in 2014 in North Park. It now has additional locations in East Village (adjacent to Petco Park), Encinitas, La Mesa, Ocean Beach (OB Playground), Pacific Beach, and Sorrento Valley.

The City Tacos menu features traditional tacos (pollo asado, carnitas, carne asada), caseros “homestyle” tacos (pulled pork with mayan achiote sauce, beef shank, mahi mahi), and several other meat, seafood, vegetarian, and vegan options.

City Tacos has won Best Taco accolades from Ranch & Coast’s survey of its readers for five years in a row beginning in 2020.
