Beachwood Brewing & Distilling Brewery •
3630 Atlantic Ave, Long Beach

“Stirred, not shaken. For I am not a sissy boy, like James Bond.

Beachwood brews over 25 of their own beers, along with distilling their own rum, gin & vodka. Unfortunately, whiskey is not included. Once I arrived, I was dead set on an Elder Vesper. Created by Ian Fleming as the favorite cocktail for his titular character, James Bond. A boozy beverage, Bond took his "shaken, not stirred". Not me! Stirred, not shaken. Shaking dilutes the cocktail moreso than stirring. Give it to me stiff!

Elder Vesper-
Beachwood Vodka, Beachwood Citrus Gin, Lillet Blanc, St. Germain Elderflower, Beachwood Orange Bitters. Dry, strong & lovely, this was my first taste of a martini, and I highly enjoyed the bright & crisp cocktail.

Chi Chi-
Beachwood Vodka, Trader Vic's Macadamia Nut Liqueur, Pineapple Juice, Cream of Coconut, Lime Juice. Yikes! Too sweet! Akin to an ICEE/slushie, I was given half a Tiki mug of this blood sugar spiking concoction, and I'm thankful I only had that much to drink.

Beer Sample Flight-
I asked if could sample a beer or two, and was graciously provided a flight of four of their popular beers on tap. My favorite being the Gator.

Beachwood Wood-Fired House Bread w/ Whipped Ricotta-
48 hour fermented sourdough bread, baked to order and served with whipped ricotta, roasted garlic & soft herbs. Very good! The bread had a substantial pull to it. The whipped ricotta was heavenly, dolloped upon each tear of bread. Quite filling!

Gratitude the staff at Beachwood Brewing & Distilling. The hospitable service, expertly crafted cocktails & tantalizing eats afforded a fine evening experiencing a previously unventured culinary destination.“

“It is a calm environment, the sunset looks very beautiful. I like that you order online and pay, so there's no problem splitting bills when you go with friends. The cheese on the nachos is delicious 🤤 although I found the meat very seasoned (I don't really enjoy strong seasonings) the pretzel was delicious, the potatoes too. In general the food and drinks were very good. What I didn't like very much was the service, there are so many people that the waiters are in a hurry, one of them spilled the beer on the jacket of one of the customers and didn't seem to care much. The food comes out without a name (many times) so at large tables it is difficult to know who it belongs to and there is a lot of noise. There are also no tables for large groups so if there are more than 8-10 they will probably all be at separate tables.

Parking: There is free parking; However, it tends to get crowded, we saw a sign that said 3 hours Parking but it took a little longer and everything was fine

Kid-friendliness: Not much, although some couples brought their children, there is alcohol for sale and there is no children's area“

“I didn't have any expectations going here, but they were all quickly exceeded! I loved how there were several different stands to get food from, including a dedicated bar area (I hate it when you have to order food at the bar).The food was all really fairly priced and so good! It paired well with the beer flight my partner and I got. There are many unique beers to have, and the bartender who served us was super cool and friendly.I definitely want to come back again! It was a vibe!“
