SAN DIEGO – Metal frames and piles of soot were remained Monday after a fire destroyed “Wet n Reckless Brewing” in Sorrento Valley.

According to reports, the two-alarm fire was started Sunday just before 8 p.m. while the owner Dave Hyndman was working with a welding torch.

Hyndman told investigators he left for a short while and came back to find his brewery in flames.

“This was everything I care about,” said Hyndman. “This brewery is life. I have no idea what is going to happen now.”

It took 60 firefighters roughly 40-minutes to knock down the flames. They say no one was reported injured.

“You can see from all of the outburst, it was a high-pressure explosion,” said neighboring business owner Jake Rubenstein. “We all showed up and we were hugging each other at midnight saying its all going to be okay.”

Five businesses surrounding the brewery also were damages. It is unclear how much damage they have endured or when they will be able to re-open.

The water and electricity was turned off for the surrounding units.

The owner of “Angeli’s Café,” Jiwoo Kim said he worries he will lose his regular clientele in the meantime.

“Early morning I opened here and saw the disaster … after one week, two weeks … who is going to return here to buy something?” said Kim.
