Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in The Infatuation and Time Out LA. Updated September 2026.
Highland Park Brewery · Chinatown
Time Out's #1 and Infatuation's #8. Bob Kunz's Chinatown taproom is the one LA brewery that equally satisfies lager purists and hazy-IPA chasers.
Homage Brewing · Chinatown
Infatuation's #1 and Time Out's #9. Destination bar food, a dance floor, and a saison-forward lineup that defines modern LA craft beer.
Benny Boy Brewing · Lincoln Heights
Time Out's #2 and Infatuation's #3. Whole-flower hops, crisp lagers, Belgian strong ales, and the city's only combined brewery-and-cidery.
Monkish Brewing Co. · Torrance
Infatuation's #4 and Time Out's #6. The Torrance hazy-IPA and Belgian-style temple that turns release days into Southern California pilgrimages.
