Kurt Bach, the owner of Barrio Logan’s Attitude Brewing, was in no hurry. Attitude opened its doors on Oct. 1, but the grand opening celebration will begin Friday and run through Sunday.

For the festivities, Bach will debut Iconic, a pale ale, and a special double hazy IPA.

“We had 10 beers on tap when we started,” he said, “and now we’re adding our 16th. Definitely the hazy IPAs tend to be our best sellers — the single, Intense Attitude, and the double, Dramatic Attitude.”

He laughed. “You know how dramatic opinions on hazy beers can be.”
