Funny, I was just there for business/pleasure and went to those breweries in the same day. I went to Ballast first and it was more my style. Smaller and more personal but both were awesome. Oh, and I stayed in Mission Beach.

Beer Mecca... dunno. But I was at Russian River Brewery north of San Francisco last night and they make some great, great beers. Lots of good sours and all the Pliny the Elder you can drink.
I can think of at least 3 breweries and several more pubs all within walking distance of the ferry dock.

Maybe, but they aren't all great places.
If you take a city and name the ten best places for beer and then look at how clustered they are, Seattle is going to look very spread out.
By your logic London, with two pubs on every block, is the Mecca. You better really like Fuller's and Young's beers though.

What if the group of people going are hop-heads? Only like Belgium's? Want to drink mostly porters/stouts? I think the beer mecca for each of these will be different.
