PERMANENTLY CLOSED
Costa Mesa brewery Barley Forge is the brainchild of Greg Nylen, who began his brewmaster career when he was a full-time lawyer and home-brewing in his free time. Now, his full-fledged brewery makes eight core beers, plus seasonals and limited releases. The industrial taproom serves a rotating selection on tap, and its small kitchen offers burgers, hot sandwiches, and sausage plates.
