ENSENADA, FLAVORS BORN FROM THE OCEAN Ensenada has positioned itself as a must-visit destination for craft beer lovers in Mexico. With more than 30 breweries, tap rooms, and beer collectives spread across four circuits—Valley, Coastal, Downtown, and Urban—the Craft Beer Route offers a unique experience that combines innovative flavors, stunning landscapes, and a rich local culture. Ensenada’s beer scene is distinguished by its remarkable diversity and high quality standards, elements that have positioned the city as a key destination for craft beer enthusiasts. A clear example is Cervecería Aguamala, located in El Sauzal, whose creations have been recognized in international competitions. Inspired by the surrounding marine environment, this brewery captures a deep connection with the ocean in each label. Another gem on the Ensenada Craft Beer Trail is Cervecería Wendlandt, with locations in both El Sauzal and the city’s downtown area. Twice recognized as the best craft brewery in Mexico, Wendlandt has established itself as a national benchmark for its quality and flavor. The Transpeninsular Brewery is another must-visit spot in Ensenada. With a menu that pays homage to the region’s iconic surf spots—reflected in the names of its beers—this space combines local identity, creativity, and flavor. The Beer Route is not only a delight for the palate, but also for the eyes. The coastal circuit allows you to enjoy magical sunsets overlooking the Pacific Ocean while sipping a craft beer outdoors. We recommend trying Tierra Clara (Blonde Ale) from Transpeninsular Brewery, Foca Parlante (Stout) from Wendlandt, and Marea Roja (IPA) from Agua Mala Brewery.
