I recently went to a car show at a brewery and initially I went for the car show itself, but then found myself staying hours after the show was done because the food and beer at Persuasion Brewery was that good!
I’m not a huge drinker but I enjoy visiting and discovering different local breweries. It’s cool to see how different they can be even though there are many others here in the Central Valley.
Modesto History
On the other side of the train tracks in downtown Modesto, is a somewhat new brewery to the city. Before becoming a full on brewery, this location served as an import goods/supermarket style store with a butcher and a lot of fridges that sold imported beers and other alcohols, similar to a BevMo.
Recently they have gone under new management and have gone through a few renovations. They removed the row of fridges, added more tables and chairs, brought in some new arcade games and more. If you haven’t been out there for a while, go out and check out how different it is since the remodeling,
Persuasion Brewery is one of those breweries that just works and it works because they know the locals and what we want. As an example, they carry local drinks that they create as well as some from local breweries, such as Dust Bowl out here in Turlock.
Local Craft Drinks
From beers to porters to ales to house meads, Persuasion is brewing something up for everyone and everyone. Like I said, I’m not huge into alcoholic drinks but I finally found something that I could enjoy drinking. Sadly it was a limited time drink but you can bet that I’ll be checking in from time to time to see if they made it again.
They made a pineapple seltzer during June and I tried it for the first time during the car show I previously mentioned. My friend compared it to a White Claw (which I’m not a fan of) but I would say it was a whole lot smoother. Picture a can of pineapple juice with some bubbles, but not enough to make it too bubbly like a soda. It was smooth and was an overall great experience.
Kitchen Filled With Options
On top of great drinks, they also have a good variety of food options. They’ve recently added a few new menu items like tacos, nachos and burgers (your average brewery food.) Out of all of these, the Spicy Cowboy Burger is my number one choice. Hold the spicy of course aha.
It’s a juicy 4oz Harris Ranch patty burger with onion rings, cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce on a grilled brioche bun. Originally it came with jalapenos but that is too hot for me!
Another “too hot to handle” deal is our 1st Year Price Guarantee You will have peace of mind knowing that we will not increase your rent during the first year of your stay and our leases are month-to-month.
If you’re looking for something to do while you’re not at our Storage Units, Persuasion Brewery in Modesto also hosts car shows, karaoke nights, Luchador fights and many more awesome events like these. It’s hard to find a place where mom and dad can drink a beer while the kids could play arcade games and still have fun. So come on down to the brewery and check out what the buzz is all about!
