Located in the industrial area of San Gabriel, Ogopogo highlights their ube beer and food. Sad to say, they do not make a pandan hazy IPA anymore, which was my main reason for coming. I had no idea! We parked in the faded parking lot in the front of the brewery. The parking is unclear as for the opposite side says no parking. We walked in, and felt very cold, since it was a rainy/cloudy day. They had their doors open that led towards he outside seating and the front entrance, so a breeze was going through. On a Sunday afternoon, it was not busy at all. We took a small look around the brewery and didn't see anyone. The beertender was actually hidden towards the left and wasn't near the register. She didn't say anything nor greet us. In fact, I don't know if she said anything at all. We ordered out two beers and went to sit down. I found out that she was counting her minutes to leave and another beertender took her spot. We sat in the back where the music wasn't as loud so we can do some work. I ended up going back up to order their hot dog happy hour: a Boeman and a hot dog for $10. I then ordered myself a hot dog for $5 in addition to a Hazy IPA. the second beertender was a tad nicer than the first. She explained to me the discontinued beer, which I didn't know about. The hot dog was pretty good for the cost. It's bigger than a hot dog you'd get at a stadium and it was definitely half the price. They had ketchup packets and offered onions as a topping. As for their beers, it was decently priced with the haze I was expecting. They had a bigger crowd of people starting at 6 when we left. The parking lot was filled on both sides and people created their own lot with their cars. It's just odd how no one really comes throughout the day on a Sunday. They could offer more foods, snacks, or incentives to get people coming, but I didn't see any of that. The workers seemed not to care too much either, so that's a bummer. Again, lots of potential, but the care needs to be put in. I probably won't be back.

It is now our favorite local place to unwind with a few libations, some games and usually an enormous, delicious pretzel. The staff is next-level friendly, and it rubs off on the customers, most of which are regulars. They host so many events and always keep the menu exciting. Plus they have an awesome dog-friendly patio! Love this place. The only negative thing I'd say is that the roar of the customers against the hard-surfaced walls and ceiling can really get overwhelming at times, but whatever. Not usually a big deal. Just hit the patio if it's too noisy inside. Definitely check out the place if you haven't yet.

It's just off one of the Main Street. I haven't spent anytime in this city so everything was all new to me. We found street parking right out front but did noticed when we got inside that they had a parking lot out back. The place isn't that big. A dive bar of sort but was quite nice. One side is the bar and counter while the other side host three pool tables. There's also a couple of hi top table in the middle. They did offer happy hour everyday from 4-8 pm with free pool. And free pool Tuesday Thursday and Sunday all day. Drinks specials offered as well. We only popped in for a drink which was glad to know that happy hour was happening. The bartender behind was sweet. It wasn't that busy when we walked in. Bartender and a couple people utilizing the pool table. It was pretty chill but I'm sure it can get busy later on in the evening. Drinks specials offered were quite nice for the price. We also tried their spicy margaritas which was great. Bartender knows his skills. Also, a quick round of pool. The vibe was mellow and chill. Don't know if the music changes often but it was somewhat metal that was going on when we walked in. Crowd was great as they were all there for the same reason. Drinks and pool. Overall, it was a cool place for a pint and pool. Somewhere people meet up for drinks.

It's a great place to have a drink or two while you're waiting for your table. Great place to hangout inside/outside while people watching.

The matcha is light enough to compliment the beer. Personally, it's cleaner taste compared to their Ohana Beer.

Their food is all so fresh and real, you can taste the quality in the bite! Fish was fresh, not old at all. The fish tacos were good, lime had no juice but nonetheless it was good tacos. Their burgers were a thick patty and the meat was fresh and lean, not fatty at all. This is the first place I tried with beef that tasted fresh and legit, no crazy salty seasoning or oily at all. Juicy but light and my burger was not messy, I felt clean after eating! Incredible service and our waters were often refilled. Pulled pork sandwich was good but definitely on the dry side, hoped for more sauce. Chicken wings and pizza were finger lickin good, loved it! I was happy and would definitely come back.

They were playing good music until The Dodger game came on then they played the game audio (which all the fans appreciated). Sat in the bar area (not at the bar) and the bartenders were amazing. They kept checking on us and didn't seem annoyed at all when we still weren't sure what to order. Food: Wings and sliders were both good. Sliders better than wings if you only have room for one. Food came out fast and fresh. We stuck to the e happy hour menu but I'd bet their regular menu items are tasty as well. Drinks: Stuck to beer and they have a great selection. If you like Pliney they always have The Elder and The Younger on tap. If you're not sure what to get you can make your own flight! One bartender said they come in 6 but the trays hold 4 each, so might as well get 8!

Honestly, it is one of my favorite BBQ skewer place in the SGV area. Their seasoning is perfection, enough spice and not too salty. They have a free appetizer/snack section while you wait for your food to arrive. Be sure to sign up for their free membership. After spending a certain amount you can get free appetizers or a discount. With a big party you can rack up points pretty easily.

Scallops were good but definitely like mine more saucy. Beef skewers are more meaty than other places which I appreciated.

They have Bogo deals on their beer and you get to save any un-redeemed pitcher for your next visit.

I got the elote egg rolls to start and the chimichuri steak sandwich and BKB burger to share. The elote egg rolls were pretty good but, IMO, would have liked some more chunks of corn to represent the OG elote. BKB burger was ordered medium and was juicy and tender. The chimichuri steak sandwich was disappointing, however. I wasn't a fan of the chimichuri sauce or the lack there of it as the flavor was very subtle and too herby for me. I'd definitely come here again tho to try more of their drinks, especially the beers. I got the cali creamin which was a nice smooth stout and the mango tango soju cocktail that was pretty light. Parking is in the back if you're lost on parking details. There's indoor and outdoor seating where doggos are welcomed too!
