    Just got back from a 3 night 4 day craft beer hit em all tour from San Diego to LAX. Gotta say, this was my most pleasant surprise. I anticipate I will be hearing more from them coming soon......


    ps, you guys in SCAL are so darn lucky for what you have at your fingertrips! At least I was able to swoop in and grab my BASS and try a 19th anniversary about a month before it hits my shelves in Indy.....

    Glad you had a great trip. El Segundo makes great beers and it's nice that you were able to go with the new taproom. Definitely a HUGE improvement over the old closet...er..space.

    El Segundo is a good little secret. Have not been to the new tap room, but they are making some of the best beer in Los Angeles right now.

    I've always been meaning to make my way over though but never found enough incentive to brave the traffic as a result of coming from Orange County. But lately it's been pretty tempting to just hop in my car and go.

    El Segundo Brewing is top notch all the way. Their taproom hours are kinda wack though.. 5-9pm on most days

    My friends, I made my way out to El Segundo as well as Three Weav3rs—some damn fine IPAs.

    Was there yesterday and managed to get some Danker Tanker, which I wanted to try. Holy Shit. If you're on the fence about visiting El Segundo now's a good time to go

    this was the first beer that i've ever thought was too hoppy. I didn't think it was possible, i've never been the type to look for balance in my IPAs, but damn i found it pretty super harsh. which could be a personal failing, but my lord…

    That beer was great. Wish I had more at the Full Pint event.

    The Danker was a great taste, but no way I would sit and drink it. Stuff is crazy hoppy

    Was thinking of going this weekend. Is the new tasting room at a completely new building or address? I looked it up on Google maps and it looked like the same building. Also, i know the old tasting room allowed dogs, is it the same with this new one? Thanks guys!

    Same building, if you go down the side street towards the back you can enter the new tap room from there

    There is zero reason to stop at any brewery in that cluster other than Smog and Monkish.

    no Strand love? White Sand is solid, when you can find it fresh. sucks they don't bottle date. surprised it gets such a low rating on here

    Has the new location open up already? They're not really attentive with their social media presence. Although if you're talking about their old tasting room, I don't really count that as part of the cluster since it's a bit more out of the way.
