“This brewery is so well hidden you'd never know it was there. Thankfully I'm always looking for new breweries to go to and this one I've had circled for a minute. I finally got a chance to go and at first sight the menu wasn't too impressive to my tastes. However, I do enjoy a good Hef and that's what I got. It was hands down one of the best beers I've ever tasted. I enjoy tasting new beers, I hardly ever stick with one beer and have it over and over again. But this Hef, I could picture myself doing that, it was so refreshing. The carbonation was on point and the flavor was outstanding. I also tried the hoppy Pilsner and I'm not a fan of strong hops. I do however enjoy the smell of hops and that beer smelled very hoppy but it didn't taste hoppy. It was magnificent. I really enjoyed my visit here. The taproom was very clean and it was a nice space. The service was outstanding. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgable. I'll definitely be coming back here. .“
“Nice little neighborhood brewery with a mini parking lot and plenty of street parking. The beertender was a nice guy and gave my husband a couple of splashes to help him decide which beer to choose. Looks like they are set up for some game playing a small stage for live music. Kind of quiet when we went on a Saturday afternoon. Seems like a great place for guys to get together.“
“We were invited to spend an evening with friends at this spot in Gardena. We were pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to find parking either on the street or in the additional lot in the back. There's a patio area out front with plenty of seating and even a few party games ( Cornhole, Connect Four, etc) our party was seated near the door, and one of the several space heaters, which we appreciated more and more as the night went on It was Tuesday, and we took advantage of the Taco Tuesday special and there's also a deal for half/off Margaritas deal. Every one in our group tried a different drink, we were all pleasantly surprised. Being a cider house, that's what the hubby and I ordered. I had the 'Mexican Lollipop' a watermelon habanero cider which was the perfect amount of spice for me. May not be enough for others tho. The hubby got The Wipeout and Best Coast ciders, he enjoyed each one, the Wipeout just a bit more because it was less sweet and a bit more abv %We each got the tacos, I had the chicken, the hubby got the pork tacos. The tacos tasted great, street taco style. At $6 for three tacos, a good deal, although we were a bit hungry later.After a while the temperature dipped and we moved inside, which also has ample seating. Inside, the theme is SoCal beachy surf vibes. There's a few TV's if you want to see the games, the hubby got to catch the third quarter of the Lakers game! Four of us also played a round on the fooseball table there. Overall, we spent about 2.5 hrs there just hanging out, enjoying great drinks and food with good friends. A great spot to do just that. We'll be back soon“
“I held a birthday celebration/event at SoCal - Gardena, and I 1000% recommend this place! Aerin was extremely helpful via email, and very detailed. The booking process was so smooth and transparent. The team upon arrival/day of event, were extremely helpful, and considerate! My whole party was impressed with the service and location. I will definitely book a future event here again! Thank you, SoCal Vibes! :)“
“LA Ale Works in Culver City is awesome! They have trivia every Tuesday, hosted by Lucky Guess Trivia, and specifically trivia master Drew. The questions are challenging, the host is hilarious and it's just simply a good time! The bar itself is cozy, drinks are great and added bonus that it's dog friendly. :)“
“Found this place while in the neighborhood and I'm glad I did. The owners were so nice and welcoming. This family owned business feels very warm. My sister and I really enjoyed talking to the owners. Awesome personalities and awesome service. Great space and location. Recommended .“
“Just had some beers here, but what a great place. Stopped in for some beers after doing some biking along the beach. Microbrew places can be hit or miss, and this place was fabulous. The beers were great. IPAs as well as a wheat beer with a hint of tangerine zest. The servers (TJ & Steven) were awesome. They made us feel right at home and took great care of us. Top notch service. And they offer outdoor seating along the sidewalk. Inside had a cool vibe as well. Definite place to return on future visit to LA area. Great Job guys!“
“Staff was incredible! Pizza was ?! Garlic knots were ok (but the pesto and marinara were amazing!) Drinks were flowing! Vibes were immaculate! Live music started at 6pm. Great happy hour prices Tues-Thurs (I will be back!) Small parking lot but lots of nearby street parking. They also have stickers and pins (my fav) for sale, as well as mugs, t-shirts and more. What you MUST try is the house made root beer. OMG it was so good! Must go and MUST try!“

“Great ambiance. The bartender was able to select the perfect beer for the description I gave him of what I was looking for. The food was outstanding. The people who run the place are great conversationalists and amazing beer makers. We loved our time hanging out there and will definitely be back.“
“The pizza was about average. The beer was good. The prices are more than I can afford but I was there on my birthday so I didn't have to pay lol. The workers were friendly and the place wasn't too busy. I would recommend it if you Don't mind spending about $4 a slice of pizza.“
“A Boozy Symphony in the Temple of BrewsSyncopated Brewing Company, a haven where the elixirs of gods flow, beckons the weary souls seeking respite from the mundane. Here, amidst the clash of flavors and the crescendo of laughter, one finds a kaleidoscope of beers that would make even the most seasoned palate raise an intrigued eyebrow.

A harmonious cacophony of tastes awaits the adventurous soul who seeks liberation from the mundane brews of mass production.

A nod to simplicity amidst the complexity, like a brief respite in a tempestuous sonata.As the libations flow, so does the mirth and revelry. Syncopated Brewing Company is not merely a place to sip fermented nectars but a sanctuary of amusement. The games, oh the games! Board games whisper secrets, shuffleboard invites friendly rivalry, and pinball machines, if fortune favors the whimsical gods, dance with delight. And on certain days, pickleball takes over the very parking lot, a boisterous battle of paddles and pickle balls, laughter echoing through the air.Yet, amidst this carnival of diversion, a humble suggestion emerges. A couple of televisions, a portal to the world of games and glory, would be a welcome addition. For those days when the sporting gods vie for our attention, a screen to share in the triumphs and defeats would complete this bastion of leisure. But fret not, for even without this modest amenity, Syncopated Brewing Company remains a victor in its own right.So, my fellow wanderers of libation, if you seek an adventure where the taste buds are challenged, where laughter mingles with the clatter of tokens, Syncopated Brewing Company is a symphony you must partake in.

“Good vibes! Flight is a great deal at 10 bucks for five pours. My favorites were lavender lace, bee keeper, and liv aloha. Bartender was awesome and super friendly. One of my favorite breweries in the area and I will be back.Also on a Friday they are open until 10 despite what it says on Yelp! Happy they were open for karaoke night. My only critique is don't let people fill up their own personal water bottle on the community water spout...with covid raging and all.“
“Came to visit last night. The pizza was delicious, perfect! My companion enjoyed the beer. It was karaoke night and the place had a very welcome, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. This is a great neighborhood spot where you feel comfortable, have good food, good beer, a good time and leave satisfied. The man who runs this place is a good support to his community. Thank You!“
“I’ve had my eye on this place for over a year and finally open in October 2023! They gave us a tour and demonstration of the whole brewery! They give free tasters upon request to see which craft beer you’d like more. The craft beers are very smooth with their own unique flavors. There is a big emphasis on quality food and drinks.“

“This brewery has great vibes and tasty beers. I usually get the Wandering Abroad, which is their fruit - cranberry sour. I'm a huge fan of sours and I'm always happy to see that they have a bit of selection of sours whenever I go! I recommend sitting in the outside area. There's an area to play cornhole, and there's usually a food truck to get some food from.“
“Best beer! Best service, best team hands down the best. I love this brewery so much, their team is very helpful, you can order pizza directly to your table from thunderbolt. Their beers are the best in town, arguably the best ever but that’s my personal opinion.“
“My favorite brewery here in Hawthorne. Staff is always great and friendly. Love their events too. Yeah parking isn't the greatest, but there's plenty nearby. Common Space and LA Ale works have parking issues too sometimes. Just waiting for them to bring back coffee on tap - it was delicious!“
“Smog City Brewing Co. is one of the best breweries I've been to in the LA Metro! They have a nice taproom space that expands outdoors, they have TV's playing whatever major game is going on that night, and the beer is top notch. My group thoroughly enjoyed the Tuna Thai Thai Belgian Blonde w/ Prickly Pear,Coffee Porter, Snuggly Bug Sour, Hoppy New Year Spruce Tip IPA and Unyielding Haze IPA! The Portuguese, Spanish and Mexican fusion taco stand was also amazing, and we came back for seconds! Some of the best tacos we've had in a long time! The prices for the beer here were also below market average which was a nice change of pace, especially since everything was delicious. 5/5 would highly recommend stopping in!“
“Cellador has long been a top-rated brewery amongst beer fans/snobs, but their niche is very particular: They produce barrel-fermented sour beers, so if you're looking for a hard seltzer, Czech pilsner, or triple imperial pastry stout, this isn't the brewery for that. Cellador's current location on Del Amo Boulevard in Torrance is not a taproom; there's no place to drink here. To be honest, it's barely even a sales location. From the large Smog City Brewing logo on the wall, one can likely surmise they are using capacity at a Smog City facility ― especially since Smog City's brewery and taproom are right across the parking lot. (That, and the first person who helped me here I later spotted worked at said taproom.) The owner came and spoke with me, and was very patient even as I admitted that I am not a big fan of sour beers and that I had not warmed well to one of Cellador's I had recently tried. Nonetheless, I did find something to purchase: a Lichtenhainer, a rare type of beer that has a lactic fermentation where the malt is smoked, so it's both smoky and sour. (It's an acquired taste, to be sure, but I love smoked beers.) While their style may not be my thing, I respect Cellador's devotion to their craft, and the owner is a really nice guy, too. I wish them the best, and while they may not be in my beer strike zone, I'll keep trying them to see what they're doing.“
“we love this place! The atmosphere is fun with chill vibes. Huge space. They have dozens of pin ball games, old school pac man, jumbo Jenga, comfy couches.. dogs are allowed/Kid friendly.. There’s always a nice mix of people when I’ve been, plus the guy that works weekend nights is nice eye candy ? I think his name is James.excited to get our group together for their trivia nights, starting this Tuesday.Besides all that they have really good beer! Surprisingly, my favorite during our last visit was this earl grey tea beer. I forgot the name but definitely worth a try!The only con I can say is they need better lighting on their business signs on Del Amo Blvd. especially with it getting darker earlier, it’s hard to see where they are, kinda hidden. Unless you’ve been before, you’d have no idea it was there once the sun goes down. A few lights at the entrance would probably go a long way for business.All in all, solid establishment. ?“
“I wish I could drink here everyday. They make the best ipas in the world. Staff is always chill and helpful. Been to both locations and you get the same service. Been drinking monkish for 8 years now and finally got to visit the Brewery the past 2 years. Cheers“

“I found out about Common Space Brewery through a spooky market they were hosting and though I'm not much of a beer drinker I do love some spook...needless to say I headed to Commom Space. Right off the bat I love they have their own parking lot...major points for that. I also love the whole indoor/outdoor vibe of the brewery. Picnic tables outside and high tops inside. No worries about finding a place to plop here. Now the event I went to also had vegan food vendors...trucks right in their parking lot so I was able to grab some yummy vegan grub before I hit the spooky vendors. But...before I hit the vendors I had to grab myself some beer right? So as a non beer drinker I was looking for something maybe sweet and it just so happened they had this Sunrise drink that was beer, grenadine and I forget what else....maybe pineapple. I know sounds kind of sketch but baby...it tasted so flipping good! Almost like a Mai Tai. As I was walking away with my drink several people stopped to ask what I had ordered and then I spotted them walking around the event with the drink. Ayyyy...I started a trend. Anyways I hit the vendors, made some purchases and then grabbed a table, chilled and then eventually went up for another one of those Sunrise drinks cuz why not right?All in all it was a fun time in a cool space. I had such a great time I've gone back for a few other events.Now Common Space is about 30 or 40 minutes from me but definitely worth the trek. Highly recommend.“
“I went to Beer Thug Brewing recently. I played a round of pinball on a Jurassic Park themed pinball machine. I thought the place looked decent, but it was a bit empty. There was a DJ playing music, but I thought the music was a bit too loud. I liked that there were music videos being streamed and projected on a wall. I liked that there was karaoke at one point.“
“Fair Warning, They moved a couple doors down and no longer serve their amazing bbq food. I'm sorry guys, I love you but I had to knock a star down because it made me so sad during my visit this past weekend. So they're on the corner of LB Blvd and 3rd now, instead of being off 3rd. The inside is still as beautiful as ever and have their classic chalkboard signs up on the wall with all the beers. Got in there a few minutes after they opened and had a fun conversation with the guy behind the counter, normally I would have just left but I still decided to get a bottle of a Sour Gose to go since I still like giving them my business. But man! You guys need to find another location so you can get to cooking again!!! Those beers with some bbq was such an amazing meal!! Either way, still an awesome place to come out and grab a delicious beer, whether you like IPA, Sour, Blonde, Wheat n whatever Ale quenches your thirst. BEACHWOOD ROCKS“
“Unfortunately this brewery and its locations in Redondo Beach are all closing at the end of the year. Place was packed yesterday with ppl buying beer like crazy. Once the inventory runs out that's it. Too bad had alot of good beer here. Get there while you can“
“fyi to anybody planning on coming here the beer list is on the smaller side and the beer percentage is also on the lower side. i think the highest percent i saw was a 6% which in no way is a bad thing or a knock to them but we were looking for more options and stronger ones. other than that, the service was great and the waitress was very attentive. i'd visit in the future to try some of the food i saw on the menu which seems like this place is more of a date night so i'd be sure to visit under different circumstances. i'd also note that the restroom was extremely clean. lastly, the beer was good and there was really no complaints about this brewery.“
“Delicious beer in a secluded, off the beaten path spot. I forget her name but the woman behind the bar was incredible: she made me feel welcome and gave me great suggestions for brews. We even talked about the LA craft brewery scene. Shout out to her!“
