San Diego Region to Experience Cooling Relief as Temperatures Dip Over the Weekend
San Diegans can expect a gradual drop in the scorching temperatures this weekend. After enduring an excessive heat warning, the much-needed respite comes as a trough of low pressure moves inland along the West Coast. Inland areas are set to cool down, with temperatures on Sunday hitting near average for the lower deserts and potentially 5 to 10 degrees below average for the valleys. As reported by the National Weather Service San Diego, this cooling trend will be accompanied by stronger and gusty southwest-to-west winds in the mountains and deserts through Saturday evening.
Jackson Merrill takes playful jab at former Padres prospect James Wood after big hit
For the San Diego Padres, Jackson Merrill has been one of their greatest success stories this season. He came into spring training as one of the better infield prospects in the league, but the problem was that the Padres already had too many infielders, which made playing time for Merrill a challenge.

Beer of the Week: Garston Gold 2.0
For the longest time, far too many local breweries acted as though craft beer and sports were mutually exclusive interests. Much of that belief was tied to old-school macrobeer advertising that leaned heavily on macho caveman drivel and was painfully omnipresent, both at arenas and stadiums as well as on sports broadcasts. But as we’ve learned over time, craft beer has a place at sports bars, ballparks, arenas and stadiums. Likewise, it’s OK to have televisions tuned to ball games in brewery tasting rooms. Heck, some of the most popular beers and successful marketing initiatives from local breweries have involved local teams and sports stars. It’s great to see these stigmas slain, because most times, bringing suds and sports together creates a communal magic that’s near impossible to match. That much was proven last weekend when Kairoa Brewing held a multifaceted two-day affair inspired by the New Zealand national rugby team’s visit to San Diego for a match against Fiji at Snapdragon Stadium. The Kiwi-owned-and-operated business could have just opened early, live streamed the game and called it a day, but they went all in. In addition to having the game on, the University Heights brewpub offered New Zealand food specials, stayed open late the night of the match and tapped a quartet of limited-edition liquids, including this week’s featured beer, Garston Gold 2.0. A West Coast IPA, it was brewed with Motueka hops from New Zealand’s Garston Hops. Those Southern Hemisphere beauties give off aromas of petrol and peach (apt given the name of Kairoa’s head brewer, see below), leading to a complex flavor profile evocative of lemongrass, lime zest, white grape, apricot and nectarine. It’s as much a triumph as the 47-5 thrashing the All Blacks issued to the Flying Fijans. And it’s still on tap at Kairoa, along with a Motueka-hopped Pilsner called Dry Hop Drop, a German-style schwarzbier going by the name Boots + Stubbies, and a West Coast IPA brewed in collaboration with Burgeon Beer Co. and Societe Brewing dubbed Bring the Ruck-us. Beer and sports don’t go together…yeah, nah!
