About 619 Spirits North Park

619 Spirits North Park is San Diego’s first urban craft distillery and tasting room with a full restaurant and bar, located in the heart of the city’s North Park neighborhood. Brought to you by the makers of Six One Nine Vodka, known for our premium handcrafted vodka and signature all-natural vodka infusions.

The distillery portion of the space, open to the public for tours, houses a custom-made two-column 1,000L still. The adjacent tasting room is anchored by a large bar featuring spirits and cocktails by both 619 and other local distilleries. The kitchen features a dynamic menu of seasonal offerings that complement the tasting room’s craft cocktail offerings.

Located in the vibrant North Park area – known for its Craftsman bungalows, art galleries, critically acclaimed restaurants and a myriad of nightlife options – 619 Spirits North Park occupies 4,200 square feet of a reclaimed industrial space at the corner of 30th Street and Lincoln Avenue.

Founder Nick Apostolopoulos conceptualized the 619 Distillery & Tasting Room as a central gathering place for the community: cocktail classes, summer BBQs and art events are all on the horizon. Local artist Jason Feather produced several custom works for the space, including a large graffiti installation on the dog-friendly outdoor patio.

ABOUT 619 VODKA

Named for the city’s primary area code, Six One Nine Vodka launched in 2012 and is widely available in bars and restaurants as well as retail outlets throughout the San Diego area.

Founder Nick Apostolopoulos, a former software architect and long-time spirits aficionado, recognized that San Diego needed its own super-premium handcrafted vodka. At the time, local and state laws made it nearly impossible to establish a distillery within the city limits. By 2015, regulations loosened, and Six One Nine Vodka began entirely producing its award-winning vodka in the city of San Diego. Six One Nine Vodka is distilled entirely from cane sugar (most vodkas use wheat or corn) resulting in a uniquely clean and smooth texture and natural absence of gluten.

What. A. Night.

Our teams came ready to play tonight and started strong right out of the gate. We were in a three-way tie for first and a two-way tie for second for the first 3 rounds until the "Guess Who" round spread the field a bit.

A few teams went big, taking guesses at the first clue and missed the mark taking home minus 1 for the round and leaving Vibrato Anonymous at the top alone.

Vibrato Anonymous held on to the spot for the rest of the night, sweeping round 6 and getting all but 2 correct in the final round to edge out Shall Remain Anonymous for the win.

In addition to some scorching Trivia, our DJ Coop spun an amazing playlist that matched to the themes and questions like "You Spin Me Round" playing during a question about the turntable used to distribute food on the dining table. His music was so good one of the teams said they couldn't wait to see what he comes up with next week.

Folks, 619 was jumping Wednesday with trivia, dad jokes, great music, and a lot of laughter - we had a few teams who gave some fantastically funny answers. You do not want to miss next week.

I'll bring my dad jokes, Coop will bring his tunes, and you bring the big brains. See you next Wednesday at 7!
