I've definitely had a few.

They are somewhat hard to find. In Loreto have seen them in the small markets around Loreto Bay and once at the biggest beer store (name is escaping me), but pretty low quantities. Easier to get in La Paz.

There is also a similar brand to them out there.

I do miss the Tijuana Brewery (Cerveza TJ) and beer garden. Costco even sold their beers for a while. As I recall, one of the big brands bought it and then shut it down... It must have been a threat?

Never been to the one in TJ, but the San Jose site has plenty of good beer and great food.

They deliver to my house in Pescadero. I usually get their Peyote IPA.
