UTC— The Cohn Restaurant Group's switcheroo of their La Jolla Strip Club into a new craft beer concept called Draft Republic is complete; the eatery has soft opened with daily lunch and dinner plus Sunday brunch. The menu includes housemade sausages, flatbreads, sandwiches and burgers, including one called the Hotter than Hell burger that's topped with pickled jalapeño, ghost pepper jack cheese and habanero jam. Eating it requires you to sign a waiver. [EaterWire]
