***Updated for 2017***
Part of running a brewery tour business in Los Angeles means knowing, at least casually, all the Los Angeles breweries. In doing research on all the new breweries popping up, I realized there wasn't one convenient resource for all the breweries in LA, so we decided to create it!
This is a list of all the Los Angeles breweries that I know exist. I'm not perfect (just ask my wife), but I did try and do my research. Hopefully, I haven't missed one. If I did, please kindly send me an e-mail and I'll be sure to fix it. I'll be periodically updating this list as new breweries come online. For the purpose of this post, I am considering "Los Angeles" as the LA County lines.
Finally, this is not an endorsement for any brewery, just simply a list and acknowledgment they exist. I would be lying if I said I've been to all of them, but I have been to or tasted at least one beer from the majority of these breweries. There is no prerequisite for Great American Beer Festival medals or a Beer Advocate minimum rating - just that you make beer. In LA.
Enjoy.
