Good drinks and fun vibes! Live music was playing when we were there and people were dancing and having a good time. There aren't a lot of seats but you can sort of stand around. They did have a food truck but the line was extremely long so order as soon as you get there if you're planning to get food.
This is one fun and laid-back brewery, which feels like it's deeply hidden in a secret community and when you find it it's like a happy surprise. They are pet and kid friendly and involved with and supportive of the surrounding community and artsy vibe culture. They have a small indoor seating area and a cozy shaded side patio with a coming soon expanded section to make the patio space larger. The vibes are always fun, especially when they host different food and artsy vendors and live DJ's. The staff is not overly friendly, but they get the job done; they greet you, they serve your beer, they pick up the empties and repeat. Unfortunately, there is only one unisex restroom, so depending on how busy they are or if there is a popular themed event you can expect to be waiting in a line for a while. Another thing to mention, there is very limited street parking, so patience is key and/or walking shoes for when you find something in the surrounding streets.
I feel so fortunate to have stumbled across this gem during the Frogtown First Fridays. The space is lovely, with a good mix of indoor and outdoor seating. It reminds me a lot of breweries in the Midwest, who I think do breweries best. There's limited street parking (not just for the brewery, but many things in Frogtown) so be prepared to park far and walk in.
The beers here are all really good. They also have live music on the weekends, and there's a nice path along the water right next to the place, which is perfect for a walk. Such a great spot to grab a beer, enjoy the atmosphere, and hang out.
I absolutely LOVED the nectar of the gods hazy. It was cool inside and a very chill place to hangout. Their service was great and everyone was so friendly. They also have beer to go. A food truck was outside while we were there too. Great brewery in LA. Super close to dodger stadium too.
Always a great time at our favorite brewery! We had a blast hanging out with friends, watching the World Cup, and enjoying some of our favorite brews. The atmosphere was lively, the beer was as excellent as always, and it made for the perfect place to relax and cheer on the matches. Great drinks, great company, and a fantastic vibe. We can't wait to come back!
Beer - good variety of choices and refreshing flavors. The only caveat is the ABV; could be higher, but that's just my personal choice. Also, if you're lactose intolerant, check with the server about which beer has lactose. It was too late for me and I paid the ultimate price, or rather my wife did... Service- excellent and efficient. Got our beer quickly everything. Restroom - clean Parking - street parking. Hard to find at primes times. Additional notes - if Tripp Burgers is there, order the triple one. We'll worth the money.
Your small to medium-sized brewery that provides bar seating, tables for groups of 2-4 people, and there were a few group tables that were reserved. By the time I went, there was a tent in front of the brewery selling freshly made oven-baked pizza. Service was pretty fast, like your standard 5-10 min order. There will be a good amount of people at brewery so there's a chance you might just stand around. Parking on the street, very limited; you would have to walk over. There's a unisex restroom provided. There are options to try a wide assortment of flights, to order a wine slushy, which is a fun option. Lites out 16oz beer: Like the name suggests, the beer is on the light side, carbonated throughout to leave a crisp, refreshing taste.
Great staff, huge brewery in a pretty cool random street. Mostly IPAs, a small selection of lighter beer and they were great! They provide food trucks in lieu of a kitchen, we had Tripp's burgers as the food truck. Cool to see the kegs and back of house areas all together. Very animal friendly, cute playful cat lives there and they welcome dogs in their huge outdoor patio. Would give five stars for the beer quality and laid back vibe. Parking is street only and very competitive during busy times. Gave it 4 stars for the limited parking and food options, so do not come hungry since it depends on the food truck that visits (see separate review).
Nice brewery with lots of seating. I was expecting more options for dark beers, but there was only one. I tried the Kinky (Blonde Ale), Survey Says (Mexican-Style Lager), and Captain Fox (Irish Red Ale). The blonde ale and lager were good. The red ale had a smooth caramel taste, definitely on the sweeter side. They also had a food truck and the tacos were amazing!
Chill vibe with great craft beers! We celebrated our dear family's milestone birthday. There is an outside patio area, food truck in the front and plenty of more seating indoors. We sat at the large table with booth chairs inside. My first thought was how cute, cozy and warm the atmosphere was. There are cool decorations and merchandise for sale. The staff was friendly, made great recommendations and were attentive in clearing out items from the tables. There's a variety of light, hoppy, malty/dark beers and non-alcoholic options. I ended up ordering a Build your own flight with 4 different beers including: Kinky, Lights Out, Jo Jo's Jam (this was my favorite), and Captain Fox. There are game boards you can borrow and play. The kids ate pizza from Frogtown. We ordered tacos, fries, and wings from Arenita food truck in front. There's a self serve water station and a unisex bathroom (very clean) inside. Many people biked there and others brought their dogs. Street parking.
Echo Park is very fortunate that this brewery is in the neighborhood. Every variety I've tried is magnificent. I've been there several times and I'm always greeted by a terrific staff who are not only knowledgeable about the craft brews they serve, but are as nice as can be. Nora and Will recognized me and that makes it an even more pleasant experience. I was so taken with this business that I actually became a member of their Frogtown society. Now when I come in, they always serve me in a special member only Glass. Now that I'm a member, I get invited to special private parties that they throw as well as being among the first to experience new varietals they are brewing. Jonathan, a master brewer, was in and I told him that he makes the best Porter I've ever had and I'm picky about Porters. He was so taken with my thoughts on his 2024 Prince George blend, five minutes later he came out of the back with a 2022 Prince George that he wanted to share with me. The 2022 is no longer available but this was from his private stock and the taste was out of this world. I was told later by Ian that Jonathan was very touched by what I said to him about his brew because what he did for me doesn't happen every day. Treat yourself. This is one brewery that really cares about their product outside of their door, there is always either a food truck or pop up food service that is always delicious and fair priced. Thank you Jonathan, Nora, Will and Ian. I love being part of the Society!

Terrible service! I call to see which food trucks they have and the phone tells me it's on their website and literally hangs up on me. I check their crap site and the truck calendar is cut off. Tried for minutes to zoom out. Nothing. Unprofessional, get your crap together. Amateur and careless. Lost a customer. read more
Stopped by here before the dodger game. Parking is limited to street parking. They are plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Since it was our first time there. We tried some hazy IPAs which is our preference. I was excited to try the painkiller because it's a milkshake but it was VERY sweet and coconutty. We also tried the Barrett's garden - which I loved but it was a little bit too hoppy since wanted to get a whole pitcher. We ultimately ended up getting the cloud drifter because it was super smooth and refreshing. A very solid hazy IPA and honestly now on my top 5 favorites! read more

Parking is hard to find, they don't have their own parking lot. The vibes are super chill; I love the old school music that they play. The music is loud enough so you don't hear other peoples conversations but are able to converse with your partner easily. Their flight pack is definitely worth it & something I would start with before ordering a full sized drink My favorites were the tiki zombie (sweet& sour) & the stratosphere (hoppy & herb tasting) read more

Stopped by Frogtown Brewery (AGAIN) and wow -- the Painkiller Milkshake IPA is OMG good. Super smooth, tropical, and dangerously drinkable. (Comes in 4-packs too) Great laid-back vibe, friendly staff, and a perfect spot to hang out. Definitely coming back for that one again. read more

The beers are great. Nice indoor and outdoor space. Inside can be warm in the summer. The food truck ran out of food by 6:30 on a weekend which wasn't ideal. Luckily tons of places deliver from nearby. We had quite the spread and they kept serving us beer outside. read more

Inside and outside areas are so cute. I love how there's a food truck right outside of the place to order food. The beers were amazing. One of the servers told us about that Underberg shot that was sitting at the counter so we wanted to try it out. If you don't like black licorice flavor, do not try it lol other than that, it was my first time going with a friend and we both enjoyed it read more

Frogtown is one of my favorite pregame spots before going to Dodger Stadium for a game being about 3 miles away just down the hills. The brewery is also near the LA river bike path so it's an easy spot for cyclists to drop in on. They have a lot of indoor and outdoor patio seating so it's perfect for large groups. The beers they brew here are some of the best and most consist here in LA. They regularly have food trucks, inside there's board games to play, and it's dog friendly. All the basics that make for a great brewery. read more
We're not from around these parts so you know the. EER is good if we drive 40-45 min for a cold one. Get the Pain Killer, you won't regret it! Servers are really good, they are patient and will advise you if you don't know what to get. The food trucks are always a hit too. There's plenty of seating for big groups too. read more
Stopped here on a Saturday afternoon around 4:00. Not too busy, was a short line and easy to find a seat inside. Easygoing, atmosphere to enjoy some beer with friends. Shared a pitcher of Painkiller, the pineapple and toasted coconut milkshake IPA. Yum! Will come back just to have it again. We weren't hungry when we went but they had a taco food truck that looked good. Plan to come back and try some of their other beers next time. Only negative was parking was kind of hard to find a spot. read more
A cool fun brewery in Frog-town! Right off the freeway in Elysian Valley is this fun and cool brewery. I got there at night on a weekday cause I really love blonde beers and they have one I enjoy. For a weekday parking was surprisingly difficult. It is Los Angeles after all so that means you got to find whatever street parking you can that is not blocking a driveway. This is an office industrial Elysian park area so there's no parking lots. Visited a while ago back so my memory is not as fresh but what I share are impressions that will follow you as well. Once you find street parking the brewery has there food truck outside with tacos and the bar area indoors with an outdoor area right next door. The outdoor area has a stage for rock bands and other groups and fun brewery games. A lot of options for beers and they are all good. I am a fan of blondes so glad they have something for me. A nice big operation inside. Service was great and the bartender let me taste to find what I wanted. As it was a weekday there was a mixed crowd of people studying and families enjoying their time. Definitely has a locals vibe to it. All my photos will give you an even better view of my experience with menus, location, and the atmosphere. So go check this place out they have great beer and fun vibes in LA. read more
