We traveled out from TN and happened upon this place our first night here. Perfect brewery atmosphere, family friendly, good food, awesome staff, and most importantly excellent brew. Highly, highly, highly recommend stopping by for a pint (or two or three)!

Recently stopped by, again, I've been many times, just haven't written a review. Honestly, it's been hit or miss here. It's a bit of a rough part of town, bar is a converted industrial area. Parking lot feels safe though, so proceed with confidence. Service was amazing from a new bartender, Lindsay (sp?). She single handedly served around 30 people, and I think it was her first day. Really good vibe inside. We were there for bingo night. Host was great. Thanks for my inflatable beer melon! They also have trivia, which we heard is pretty popular. Looks like they have various food trucks on some nights and a pretty good menu as well. Pizza was great! Lots of hand-crafted brews to choose from. I preferred the Honey Hand. Great place to stop by to escape the traffic, or on your way home on your commute. Recommend coming on a theme night, like bingo or trivia. We won some cool stuff at bingo, totally unexpected.

Came here on a Saturday night. The bartender was very cool and patient. He advised on us on all the beers and wine. The beer selection had something for everyone. They had bingo inside and food vendors in outside.

Love our local brewery! We frequented this brewery before the pandemic and I hadn't really been there since. We went on a Friday night. I had some school work to do so I brought my laptop. Thankfully they have Wi-Fi! I was able to chill, have a drink, and do my school work. To top it off they were playing the jams. I quite enjoyed it. I am looking forward to returning.

The vibe was mellow. Football on TV. Pizza was good. The Stout was solid! Good service.

Wanted to support my friend The Diva Den Jewelry by Hilary and she let me know she would be at their Anniversary pop up today.First of all it is hidden away and you will feel like maybe you have the wrong address or making a wrong turn.The pop up was super fun! Lots of talented creators.I’m not a beer drinker, but the meat pizza was fantastic. Lots of fun art as well.

4.5 stars!I find myself somewhat appalled that I haven't reviewed Hand-Brewed Beer sooner, despite being a repeat visitor since their 6th anniversary, and here we are celebrating its 9th! This brewery has become a cherished spot for us, offering a much more relaxed and chill atmosphere compared to others like 818 or San Fernando.The ambiance is always inviting, making it a perfect place to unwind. They offer a diverse variety of beers on tap, including guest beers and wine, ensuring that there's something for every palate. Their in-house kitchen serves up decent bar food, but we've found ourselves particularly fond of the food trucks that periodically grace the venue, adding a delightful variety to our dining options.Hand-Brewed Beer has been a constant in our brewery visits, a place where we can kick back, enjoy a good beer, and soak in the laid-back vibes. It's always a pleasure to return, and we look forward to many more visits in the future.

Tucked inside the Valley, this is a comparable alternative to 818 Brewery. It's also not too far away from 818, as well. Hand-Brewed Beer has events on-site with food trucks and small local businesses, which is how I had the opportunity to visit. I actually came on 818 Day on 8/18, and Hand-Brewed Beer had a Birria taco truck on-site along with a number of local vendors. Love the options and pricing here. Some games available. Good for groups and dates. I parked in the neighborhood area. It was pretty busy when I went, so I expected to walk.

Another one of those hidden places that you stumble upon. A gem that's waiting to be found. We came to meet some friends for drinks and a bite. Of course, with all the great reviews on Yelp, it looked promising. Well, first off. It is in a bit not so pleasant location. The industrial part of Chatsworth I believe. There were encampments and trailers parked along the street which was sketchy. So be advise with that if parking along the street. The pub/restaurant is situated inside a complex so it's not right off the street. There's parking there but certain spots are reserved for other businesses but can be utilized after a certain time. First impression, it looked like a garage turned into a hang out place. There was a covered patio outside. But once inside, it was a cool spot. Hi top tables throughout the place. A bar area, plenty of board games to choose from. They had snacks as well as a menu. Limited item. Believe they catered to pizza, hot dogs and some sandwiches. Plenty of beer to choose from which of course was the whole idea of this place. Service was nice. You order at the country and take your number. It wasn't big but pretty roomy enough. We happened to come on trivial night which was quite fun. It did get really busy as it tended to be regulars. They even had an ice cream truck that showed up outside. We did noticed that there was schedule of all the events that happened each day which all seemed quite fun. Of course will have to make another trip back. Overall, fun night out. Good beer, friendly people, pizza was nice.

What a hidden gem in Chatsworth! Came here on a Friday afternoon to celebrate a friend's birthday. When getting here make sure to keep an eye out for the signs that are guiding you to the brewery. They have street parking & a small parking lot in front of the brewery. They have seating outside and inside! This is one of the few breweries that I have been to that actually have food there. We ordered their pepperoni & cheese pizza, both were delicious! Definitely not pizza from a freezer and reheated. They have an ample beer selection & the bartender is more than happy to help you find the one best suited for you. We got the bridge to nowhere, their Irish stout and many more. My personal favorite was their hard tea, first time trying it and LOVED it!They have extremely friendly staff that are there to help you with anything you may need! Had too much fun that I totally forgot to take pictures. Guess you just have to check it out!
