3480 W Warner Ave unit B, Santa Ana

“If you are taking a tour of terribly paved industrial sectors you may run across this basic brewery which I've found weirdly chill all 3 times I've been, but beer is good and the folks seem cool. I understand it's been around for a while and still with the beer. C'est la Vie.“

It is cooked to perfection. I came today after a couple of years, and they have simply not lost their magic touch. The same staff from years ago making the same delicious recipe. Trust me, this is the spot!“

Pfeiffer Brewing Company Brewery •
3150 E La Palma Ave Suite G, Anaheim - 7.35 miles

“Tried several of their lagers this time — all very clean and smooth, no off-flavors.
The dark lager has a really nice malt character, not sweet or heavy, with a clean finish.
If you’re into more traditional lager styles, this place is worth checking out.“

Stereo Brewing Brewery • $$
950 S Vía Rodeo, Placentia - 8.59 miles

“You can always tell if a brewery is actually good at brewing if they have a great pilsner (there's nothing to hide off flavors). Stereo Brewing makes great beer! The vibe, decor and sound is awesome, like 1960s/1970s album cover art in a brewery package.“

Bottle Logic Brewing Brewery • $
1072 N Armando St, Anaheim - 7.21 miles

“One of my favorite breweries that I've been to. Its an intimate venue 15 minutes from Angels stadium and Disney. A lot of breweries specialize in a couple styles, but these guys do it all well. We really enjoyed the cocktail style smoothie beers fortune & glory and return to Saturn. Their barleywine, universe from scratch, might be the best I have had. Its meant to be like apple pie, but tasted like cinnamon toast crunch to me. Their hard seltzers are perfect for summer drinking. The staff was incredible. Give these guys a shot, you won't be disappointed.“

“Hosted a 40 people surprise party at GameCraft and I have never worked with a better brewery!!

Their small team of 4 were super accommodating to our requests, even though they were busy all day, and the drinks were BOMB (props to the brewmaster).

We were pleasantly surprised that they had a nerd market that day AND karaoke at 7 pm.
Even though we only booked for 3 hours and was planning to barhop after the event, we all stayed until closing cuz it was such a great place to just chill the night away.

BIGGGG SHOUTOUT to Misa, the hostess+bartender (iykyk) for entertaining our karaoke shenanigans!!“

Synth Beer Co. Brewery •

“Fun new spot near the airport in Irvine with tasty beer and a great vibe. Tucked back in an industrial area but with a great big outdoor patio with plenty of seating. Inside has a mix of tables couches and bar seating with a fun vibe. Hip music playing throughout. Incredibly friendly staff talk through the beers on tap to help make selections. Taster sized pours mean you can try all of them without feeling guilty. A few seltzers on tap I didn’t try but also a selection of IPAs, IIPAs and pilsners. Brewer has experience from Greek Cheek and excited to see what they have in store. Check it out for sure!“

I love the overall energy of the place, it feels casual and welcoming. The only downside is that the tables and booths are pretty uncomfortable and not very sturdy, which makes it hard to fully relax and enjoy a long visit. Still, it’s a great spot overall, and I’ll definitely be back for the good vibes and solid value.“

“We held our daughter and son-in-laws “ day after wedding” gathering for friends and family who couldn’t make it on their wedding day in 2021 (because of COVID limitations). We also just held a co-ed baby shower for them just this past weekend there.(2023). You now can reserve an area (for a fee) and get catered platters of food items. This made it so much easier than individual orders. Usually there is a band playing on Saturdays and Sundays. The staff were all nice and great to work with. It was great to have a large outdoor venue for their baby shower.“
