Validation Ale

Bowl season is in full swing!

Headed to see Bob Dylan at the Santa Barbara Bowl tonight? Make Validation your after party.

Cold beer, good food, and zero parking. We’ll be pouring pints from 4 PM until close.
See you tonight. 🍻

Saturday night just got an upgrade. DJLucke takes over Validation HQ at 8:30pm — inside, outside, cold beer in hand. Whether you’re on the patio or packed in by the bar, the energy finds you either way. See you there. 🎧🍺

What’s your summer sipper?

Because ours just hit the board. The Blueberry Bramble is back — fan-requested, fan-approved, and perfectly timed for a long weekend of World Cup soccer.

Find your seat at Validation HQ in the Funk Zone. The matches are on, the Bramble is cold, and the only thing missing is you.

Introducing our World Cup Wing Sauce — and yes, it already sold out on day one. 👀

We’re fully restocked and ready. Sesame garlic, soy, and honey — no heat, just pure depth and sweetness. Something completely different from anything else we’ve got.

Available at HQ and Annex for the duration of the tournament. Once the World Cup’s over, so is this sauce.

Wings + World Cup = the only equation that matters this summer. Come get into it. 🏆

Bowl night hits different with a cold one in hand.

The Black Keys are at the SB Bowl tonight — and we’re at The Shop from 4PM to close.

Pre-show, post-show, or skip the show and just drink with us. No judgment.
