Empty List
It is great that five Sand Diego craft beer spots made Draft Magazine's list of top 100 beer bars. The deserving five are O'Briens Pub, Hamilton's Tavern, The Blind Lady, Tiger!Tiger!, and Encinitas Ale House. I have been to all except Encinitas Ale House, but its sister pub, The Public House La Jolla, has one heck of a Belgian heavy tap list. To me - and taking nothing away from the five outstanding San Diego locations that Draft included - any list that excludes Toronado and the San Francisco Toronado makes me question the whole list. By what criteria could have the Toronados fallen short?

Toronado was listed under their "chain" category, since there are more than one...
Thanks for the clarification. Toronado is no Yard House. It's a shame that the "chain" designation prevents it from being listed. I guess - in San Diego - this excludes Stone and Pizza Port, which have excellent tap lists. It's a gray area, because on the list all but O'Briens are part of groups that operate similar craft beer-focused eateries, which while not chains are not that different.
