Visited the Tasting Room on Sunday and its a very good one. About a 45 minute drive from where I was in Santa Monica. About a half dozen of their beers on tap. Lots of bottles, including some specials, including the 3 melange which I gladly bought for WomenCantSail and another Bruery reserve member. None of their brewers about this holiday weekend. Very friendly though not as fancy as say Avery’s tasting room. Good time, reasonable prices.

A great place to grab some fine brews. The staff is super nice and provide prompt service. The place was bustling on my Thursday night visit.

This place is in a business plaza. They had just completed their new tasting room and as a result it is very stark and minimalist in their, but I kind of like that vibe. There is a food truck outside for those who may be hungry, but no beer is allowed outside. The draft lineup was stunning. I love it when I go to a brewery and they have some beers that are harder to find. This hit the jackpot. They probably had close to 20 taps of only Bruery beer and several of it was rare and extremely delicious. I went here on a Friday night and it was slammed. We had to wait around for even standing room. The wait to get a brew was not long though. I was thrilled with my visit.

Been here tons of times now. The bar is located right in the center of the tasting room and right next to the equipment. A great deal of the space these days is full of barrels, so the room to stand and hang out has been diminished a bit. The service is always quick and friendly, and the bartenders are knowledgeable and willing to help customers. Like most breweries some of the beers I really enjoy, others not so much, but that’s to be expected. No food is served in the tasting room, but there is almost always a food truck outside for your convenience. Prices are fair, though like most things Bruery, are a little on the high side. But if there are more than one or two beers you want to try, the flight is a great deal. For $8 you get to keep your Bruery tulip and I think you get 4 or 5 samples.

Lots of taps and bottles in this new, comfortable, chill bar. All kinds of wild things on tap, and bottles I couldn’t even look at. The Bruery is getting better too. Some beers still bad, but others wonderful. I loved it.

Your standard warehouse location of the brewery, but once inside this is different with all the barrels stacked against one wall - just watching the barrels and thinking of the beers maturing makes your teeth water. But then hit the bar that is set right next to the brewery and you can taste some of the delights before buying some to extend the enjoyment of the visit. JohnC helped us get in on an otherwise closed Monday - thanks. I would have hated to miss this.

Very clean, sleek, large open space. Lots of taps and bottles to have samplers of or take away with. The Bruery rolled out the red carpet for our crew, free tasters, sneak preview of White Chocolate, which was very good. Staff was very friendly and chatty. Could definitely see this place getting a little crowded and rowdy. Fully staffed and beer knowledgable staff. I didn’t see any food there...I think someone mistakenly entered a food rating. Well, there is no food menu despite what you read. Bottle list was much larger than 5.

This place is a must stop at! Partick and his wife are greats hosts, and Patrick is an awesome brewer and a great guy! Small brewery (bruery), it looks like they will out grow it soon. A couple fermenters and tons of used and new barrels aging (at least 30). Small tasting bar. It is hard to believe these guys have only been in business for a short while. Patrick gave myself and my two friends a brief and personalized 1 on 1 tour. Great guy, I wish him all the best. The brews on tap and bottle were amazing. Free cheese and pretzeles to go with. Everyone there were kind and attentive. Even got a couple bottles that Patrick had reserved for his father (i.e. no longer for sale). Great expirience, I plan on comming back often. By far the best brewery in the Los Angeles Area, and easily a great So Cal brewery to rival the talents of Alesmith and PP/LA!!

Visited during RBSG. Classy renovation. Great modern interior with tons of beers on tap and in the fridge. Love their "chalk" board and the tasting flights. Excellent service to boot!
