"Movies are the new books" it's a DDH double dry hopped hazy. Gives me new hope for dry hopping! Or is that new hop for dry hoping? 😂

My first time trying Peacherine hop...
From Gemini
The Peacherine hop is a new hop variety developed by Freestyle Hops, a hop breeder based in New Zealand. It is an experimental hop, meaning it is not yet commercially available to all brewers. However, it has been used in a small number of beers by craft brewers around the world.

The Peacharine hop is known for its intense peach and nectarine aroma and flavor. It also has some citrus and tropical fruit character, as well as a hint of lime zest and floral notes. The hops are typically mid- to late-harvested, which helps to concentrate the peach and nectarine flavors.

Peacherine hops can be used in a variety of beers, but they are particularly well-suited for pale ales, IPAs, and saisons.

The energy of Green Cheek is contagious. Walking on the front door, you're greeted by a color logo and a lively bar filled with top-notch craft beers.
The line for the main bar is easily accessible as well as beer and food menus to glance at while waiting to be served. Beverages are poured while you wait. Food orders are given a pager and notified of the pick-up station at the end of the bar.
All of the craft beer and cocktails are delicious. I haven't met a beverage that I was not a fan of.
The food is excellent. We've sampled the pizza, burgers, wings, tator tots, and more. We keep coming back for more as our friends love the food as much as we do.
There is also a bar outside and a smaller cocktail bar near the back that is open limited hours.
The brewpub offers ADA accessible indoor or outside seating. Additional seating upstairs is an option, too.

I have been a big fan of Green Cheek for years, regularly stopping by their breweries on my way past Orange County. I was excited when I saw that they had taken over this spot from Bagby Beer.

I did not order food during my first visit but the beers were everything I expected. From the reasonable prices to the great glass choices and the addition of nitro and side pour taps everything was excellent.

They kept the outdoor bar open serving many of the beer choices, though not everything. While I really like the other locations, the open air atmosphere in this new Oceanside spot makes it the place to visit.

This is a welcomed update from Green Cheek and Bagby. Seems like they finally got the food right and even better they got the staffing right. You can actually find someone to help you at the bar who is friendly and operates with urgency.

The space also got a little refresh and this is likely going to be THE spot for the summer.

Great spot for our entire family! The beer from Green Cheek is consistently a crowd pleaser and my favorite anywhere. My wife and I plus our kids loved the burgers and fish tacos we ate. The bright and cheery vibe is a joy. Even the beer names are funny and clever (“Emilio!”). Great picture spots everywhere. If you go to the second floor there’s a lovely view of the Pacific Ocean. There’s multiple places to order drinks and lots of beer options to take home too. Can’t recommend this place enough for adults and families too!
