36 Best Craft Breweries near Pasadena

“Great local brewery! Highly recommend.“

“Best craft beers in LA County“

“My first experience here was with a close friend of mine two weeks back, which was a fun and friendly experience! The bonus is that it’s only a seven minute drive. I’ve since gone back and most definitely it’s my favorite place to unwind and enjoy myself.

The environment, customer service, warm hospitality from the staff, quality food and drinks are top tier at this neighborhood brewery. I’m in love with their chicken quesadilla and tacos they offer.

Thank you Alexis and Chelsey for your friendliness, warm nature and help for my second visit and I’ll come back again :)

Respectfully and sincerely,
Moise“

“Mark and the crew at Craftsman have been making some of the best beer in LA since the 90s!“

“BEST BEERS OVERALL!!! HPB has top notch Hazy IPA’s and a great overall selection of brews on tap at all times. Great scenery and awesome food, too! If you’re into Barrel-Aged Stouts… this is also a fantastic place for tasty BA Stouts!“

“Love this fantastic brewery friendy customers,pet friendly . Its like sitting at home with friends.🍻🍻🍻“

“Stopped by homage in a successor of breweries visited last night. The beer was delicious“

“We are so lucky to have this spot in our neighborhood! Fizzy tea is my absolute favorite, and they have really wonderful wines on tap - their beer is good too! But it’s not what is always drawing me back. Absolutely great atmosphere and the staff and owners couldn’t be cooler and kinder! It’s truly a business that is creating community“

“Super cool, super local and great beer. Loved Lars and The Audition“

“The beer here is actually pretty great. Doesn't taste like just hops. They have amazing seasonal beers and their staple, Tiki on the beach, is worth traveling hours to taste! Definitely recommend bringing some friends and having a chat with the crew at Ohana.“

“some of the best beer I have ever had, period. all named after various monsters like the Ogopogo, with cool art and stories on the cans. Great vibe and nice staff, this place is a favorite and we love watching them grow. They now serve food and pizzas.“

“I came here during happy hour and got the Hard Agua Fresca and Minotaur. Both were good.There were a lot of beer options. You could sample the selections for $2-$3 each.They had a vendor there that sells food if anyone was hungry.The location was in an industrial area. There was available street parking.“

“LA’s greatest brewery and a lovely venue.“

“🙂👍 Kelly and Kris do a great job!“

“Can’t express enough how much we love Frogtown Brewery. Excellent atmosphere. Friendly staff. Great selection of beers and other libations (the boozy slushies on the weekends are so good!). Almost always a local food truck parked out front. Very dog friendly. If you’re walking or riding along the LA River, Frogtown is a MUST.“

“First time here and learned that it's a new brewery in this venue. Timing was right for a Sunday! Music not crazy loud and a relaxed vibe. Lovely bartender helped me choose a great beer. Matcha Tart is refreshing! Will gladly come back to try other beers and also the food!“

“If you’re into kombucha (or just curious), Joimo in downtown is such a fun spot to check out. The owners are seriously passionate about tea and brewing, and you can taste that care in every batch—they make everything fresh each week.

They also offer weekend tours and tastings, which makes it more than just a stop for a drink—it’s an experience. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking to try something new and support a local gem!“

“Great beer, great outdoor vibe with music on the weekend.“

“We love the annual Brewery Art Walk. It is a great chance to see some interesting art, various mediums.“

“I have no idea how we have not known this brew house existed in DTLA. We have fallen in love with this place. It will become our new happy hour hangout. Great beer choices. Great music. Walking distance from our home. What's not to like. Can't wait to return.“

“The food is amazing. Try the wings to share as an appetizer, so tasty without having to use a dipping sauce. Smash burgers are so juicy, fries were nice and crispy. Overall great first visit. A friend of mine too me for my birthday, had a great time 👍🏽“

“everywhere Los Angeles is a tucked away brewery that makes it so easy to enjoy the beauty of this building. My friend and I stopped to get a drink before catching the last train home. Highly recommend their fries and salad. The sour beer felt more like a wellness shot even at 9% alcohol!! It was good.“

“This is basically the only brewery left in the area. Three breweries closed within a year. MT. Lowe's has a variety of entertainment throughout the week, check their schedule. And the menu of beers change frequently. Just another note, they also serve wine, but not a large menu on that. And one more thing, different food trucks come on different days.“

“Great place to enjoy life“

“This is your classic neighborhood bar. It feels sexy yet wholesome. During the day, it's chill enough to come with a laptop and get some work done. On weekends,its filled with families in the outdoor area. As the sun goes down, there is plenty of mingling.

Bartenders are awesome, friendly, and efficient. Great rotating beer selection along with some wine and seltzer. Food is served til late and is good enough to stand on its own.“

“I love this brewery. There's always a fun event going on, and they have a large outdoor space as well as two indoor spaces. If you don't like beer, they have plenty of sours in one building. They even have a slushy, which is delicious. You can ask for a taste of the ones you're interested in.“

“🙂👍 Jason does a great job!“

“First time and last. My wife didn’t like the burger. Tried for a resolution. Manager treated her like crap. We left right then. Total crap-show food-wise.“

“Great atmosphere and friendly people! Good Beer too!“

“Great array of food options in a lively atmosphere“

“I did my book launch party in GRB's speakeasy, Chloe's. We had the best time. The staff was amazing. I'm a mess with setting up events. Sarah, their event coordinator, was amazing. She helped me put together a menu that fit within my budget and made the whole setup process so easy. Our servers JP and Renata were the best and took such good care of my guests. The space is amazing with a primary pub style room set around the bar. We had our own restrooms and a very fun cozy room, which I had fun decking out witchy around the theme of my book. Above that is a whole other room with a pool table. The food was great! Between the hamburger sliders, skewers, meatballs, chips and guac, veggie tray, and delicious desserts, we were all stuffed. I opted for the drink ticket option so my guests were able to choose from their brews on tap along with a selection of wines and non-alcoholic beverages. The pub has a microphone setup, which made it a breeze to speak to my guests and do a reading of my book. They even put together a witchy playlist for me on the fly, since I totally forgot about music. I will definitely do another event here in a heartbeat. Thank you, GRB, for making my book launch such a memorable evening!“

“Pacific standard was great, awesome service and staff. The perfect place to celebrate my birthday.“

“Customer service is paramount not only for me, but specially when I am around family. Our server Schaeffer is not only superv to Customer Service but has great personality that makes me feel truly welcome!“

“Curbside pickup for me & my daughter“

“I come to the Bonaventure Brewery once a year for a work trip and I absolutely enjoy the going to the brewery every single time! The boss and I stop by multiple times because we know the drinks, food, and service are amazing. Always surrounded by other interesting travelers from a variety of places and a great environment! Shout out to Rachel, Mila, and Noah! You don’t need to leave the property, food, drinks, pool access - go get it.“
