Brouwerij West

"There are plenty of sprawling warehouse breweries in LA, but Browuerji West in San Pedro beats them all in square footage. This brewery on the docks of Port of LA occupies a WWII-era naval warehouse so large it could host a regulation flag football game. Aside from the huge indoor taproom, there’s a big outdoor courtyard with food trucks and live music on weekends, and a marketplace selling local crafts across the street. As impressive as the space is, the beer is even better. Don’t miss the top-selling Dog Ate My Homework—a purplish, juicy blackberry saison—or Popfuji, a malty, refreshing unfiltered pilsner.

"If You Want To Support Food Justice. San Pedro’s Brouwerij West is another spot that went straightforward with this one, using the original recipe and brewing a 10% ABV stout. They’re splitting proceeds equally amongst Know Your Rights Camp and the National Black Food And Justice Alliance, a coalition with the goal of increasing food justice in Black communities and increasing Black food sovereignty." - brett keating

"San Pedro’s own Brouwerij West is a modern-day craft success story, going from a small brewing operation into one of the area’s coolest places to hang out and sip beer. This massive warehouse can seat endless drinkers, and on weekends it bustles with food and lots of San Pedro and Long Beach locals." - Farley Elliott

"Brouwerij West, a San Pedro brewery, has got great IPAs and Belgian-style beers. Their single-hopped beers (like the 8 ½ with 100% El Dorado hops) are great, and we also love their blackberry saison, Picnic Lightning. In-store pick-up and local delivery available via their website, along with shipping within California" - brett keating
