May/June 2022 Sake news
We feel extremely fortunate to be able to welcome our customers back to our Tasting Room. Thank you to those who have been able to make it in during our short hours of operations. We are stoked to now have a little over 40 new Ronin Club Members! We are in the process of ordering plaques to get your names on our Ronin Wall. Any new Ronin Members will be placed on the next ordering of plaques. This will be an on-going order as more join our Ronin Club.

We are still running our "Ronin Recovery" campaign. Here's a few main points to why we are we are asking for your support:
  • To build a small kitchen, making Setting Sun Sake San Diego's first sake brewpub.
  • Makes upgrades to brewing equipment in order to increase production.
  • Add staff - as you've all seen, our business cannot operate by two people alone.

How can you help?
You can help by joining our Ronin Club, visiting our Tasting Room, or even donating.

We thank you for your patience as we continue to maintain and reshape operations at the brewery to offer you the best sake experience that we can. Our hours will continue to expand, as we hope to add on additional staff overtime.

Come in this weekend and greet Josh a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
FYI - We will be bringing out some bottles out of our cellar to share and pour on FRIDAY. Don't miss out...

Cheers to you, good sir! Without you, Setting Sun Sake would not exist.
