About Kilowatt Brewing Ocean Beach
From Kilowatt Brewing's own website, read September 27, 2026.
Kilowatt Brewing Ocean Beach is a brewery and taproom on Cable Street in the Ocean Beach neighborhood of San Diego. It is one of three Kilowatt tasting rooms in the San Diego area, and its website says each one typically pours more than twenty beers at a time.
The lineup runs from IPAs and traditional styles to barrel aged, fruit and sour beers, all brewed in small batches. The brewery says its OB Bubble Dubbel, a Belgian dubbel, won a bronze medal at the 2019 Great American Beer Festival.
Kilowatt's website describes its taprooms as filled with rotating local artwork, colorful interactive lighting, and glass infinity mirror rooms. The look changes with programmable LED lighting that shifts color through the night.
The Ocean Beach location keeps its own calendar of recurring nights. A Wednesday evening art market ties in with the farmers market down the street, and Thursday night is a drink and draw with art supplies provided.

Before you visit Kilowatt Ocean Beach
Expect a taproom filled with local art, changing lighting, and glass infinity mirror rooms rather than a plain bar. Kilowatt has three San Diego locations, so make sure you are headed to Cable Street in Ocean Beach, not Kearny Mesa or Oceanside.
Check the Ocean Beach tap list on kilowatt.beer before you go, since it changes often. The taproom stays open later on Friday and Saturday nights than the rest of the week.
California Wild Ales OB is 0 miles away, and Nova Easy Kombucha is 0.1 miles away. Ocean Beach Brewery is 0.2 miles away too, so it's easy to make an afternoon of more than one taproom.
