16th anniversay
We honestly can’t believe it’s been 16 years already. Millions of beers and hundreds of thousands of pizzas. It’s been a wild ride so far.
12th best beer bar

2024
We’re stoked to be include in the Craft Beer & Brewing “Best Beer Bar” list for 2024. As they say, “Pubs, bars and cafes are crucial to the experience and community of craft beer and a vital link between maker and consumer.” We’ve believe this since day one and done our best to deliver each and every day for the past 16 years.

THE UNOFFICIAL
BEERS OF SUMMER
CELEBRATING BALBOA PARK
Last year we debuted our "Summer of 66" beer collaboration with Burgeon.
This year?
THREE all new, summer collab beers!
That's THREE Balboa Park-inspired beers, brewed with THREE of San Diego's finest breweries: Fall, Societe and Burgeon.
And they are all dropping in MAY (one week at a time!) on tap at Panama 66 at the San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park.
So last year BLAH Brewing (our single car garage sized brewery in the back of Blind Lady Ale House) partnered with the amazing folks at Burgeon Brewing to create the unofficial Beer of Summer, Summer of 66 IPA, and it was pure sunshine in a glass. And, the thirsty crowds of Balboa Park loved it, consuming over FORTY 1/2bbls of this liquid gold. That's over 4,200 perfectly poured pints in roughly 90 days of summer at Panama 66.
This summer we decided to invite a few more beer friends to the summer jam and we're honestly beyond stoked on what we all came up with.
With the crew at Fall we wanted to build on the huge success of their Plenty for All Pils and create a lager that captures SD summer in all its glory. Nailed it.
Then, with the Societe folks we gushed about how much we pine over their classic Pupil IPA -- It's seriously been one of our favorite SD WC IPAs for over 12 year now. So, a classic WC IPA popping with hops just had to be made.
Finally, we brought back the Burgeon crew to haze up last year's fan favorite, Summer of 66 IPA. Go ahead, expect greatness. Their beers have earned that reputation.

About us
Established in 2009
Blind lady Ale House is one of San Diego’s original indie beer bars and a pioneer in the Farm to Pizza movement in San Diego. When BLAH opened it was named by Draft Magazine as one of the 100 Best Beer Bars in America over & over each year, appeared on Food Network’s Food Paradise, and featured in countless national and regional publications as a must visit for the up & coming San Diego beer scene. In 2010 BLAH became the first licensed brewery in Uptown San Diego and one of San Diego’s earliest “nano” breweries. For years BLAH’s food practices, beer program and attention to quality and sustainability landed it on the Eater Essential 38. Recently we’ve been names the 12th Best Beer Bar in America by Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine. We believe OG businesses like ours have continued to be essential to the indie food & beverage scene because of an unwaivering commitment to these practices. Over the years future business owners have held meetings in the space, reviewed blueprints, concepted menus and planmed their own food & beverage ventures at these tables. It feels good to be that spot that has been the launching pad for so many good things.
Speaking of launching…..
About 2 years after opening BLAH, the concept of TIGER!TIGER! was born out of a one- night-only sandwich event where Socheth, one of our very first employees, introduced us to the future Pork Belly Bahn mi. T!T! opened on El Cajon Blvd (off 30th Street) back when the area was know as “The Dark Zone” when there were no street lights and the neighborhood was known for its strip bars, pawn shops and cheap rents. Immediately after opening T!T! was named one of America’s 100 Best Beer Bars, was featured in Sunset Magazine, was on the Eater Essential 38, and showcased on both Food Paradise and Diners Drive-ins & Dives. Sadly, T!T! closed down during COVID lockdowns and was unable to re-open due to lease problems and financial issues.
In 2014 Panama 66 opened at The San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park. This seemed like a crazy leap for the owners of a couple “beer bars,” but The Museum was open to making a change and offering food & drink that would appeal to a broader local and tourist market. P66 is now a hub in Balboa Park serving endless glasses of SD Indie Beer, countless cocktails and plate after plate of regionally sourced food. P66 has also been named San Diego’s Best Jazz Venue multiple years, one of the cities Best Patios, and Best New Bars.
