For fans of baseball and craft beer, San Diego is like a haven. Local favorite, AleSmith Brewing Company, is one of the best examples of that, especially in recent months with all they've done to honor the late Tony Gwynn. Their aptly-named .394 Pale Ale and subsequent special release, Hall of Fame Imperial Pale Ale, were a result of collaboration between the brewery and Gwynn in early 2014.
AleSmith, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, is also planning to open a Tony Gwynn museum within the walls of their state-of-the-art brewing facility located at their new Miramar location, dubbed "AleSmith 2.0." To kickstart the funding for the museum, as well as to benefit the Tony and Alicia Gwynn Foundation (TAG), the brewery is hosting the Mr. Padre 5.5K this upcoming Father's Day weekend. Half a kilometer longer than the typical 5K, the walk/run will begin and end at AleSmith's new facility, as well as include a pit stop at their original location. Dogs, strollers, and kids are all welcome to come and join in the fun as well.
