Great little brewery in the Long Beach area. Parking isn't too hard to find usually on the street. It's located in a not so busy area at least when I was there on Saturday night. Check their website for info about special events and food as they do not have a menu themselves but usually a pop up/food truck like vendor is present. May not be best for the pickiest of eaters since you aren't getting too many options. They have live music sometimes so if you're sensitive to that, just check the schedule. Even then the music and food vendor will be outside and there's an inside seating that can alleviate some of that outside noise. They are kid friendly, just have some rules about being near your kid or an adult being near your kid at all times, pretty standard stuff. Staff is friendly and prices of beer is reasonable. Good place to stop in or if you're sensitive just want to be out of the house for a bit. read more

Syncopated is a hidden gem! Beer is delicious, their live music is always a win, and they also happen to have some of the best food vendors. We grabbed a few beers and gave Ortega BBQ a try and it was perfect! We were both impressed at how good the food was. read more

It's been on my to do list for as long as they have been open and I don't know why I never made it over here. I think I did and it's just been a while but either way I didn't review it before. I love the vibe here, they have pinball and shuffleboard in addition to just all the cool decor. Friendly staff, great beers, and on Thursday's @ortega_barbeque serving up some killer tacos. read more

This is a fun place with a great beer selection. They let you bring in your own food and usually have a food truck there. The service is excellent. We watched the World Cup final game there while they held a Pickleball tournament outside. Good times. read more

I have very mixed feelings. The ambiance is really great and ive heard it is even better when they have live music. But for me, it's about the beer and I wasnt impressed by anything on the menu or anything I tasted. Im not an IPA person and half of the menu was IPAs. I sampled a few things from the other side and found everything to be too hoppy for my taste. Parking was also difficult - the lot is T-shaped and you get stuck if no spots are open and someone comes behind you, but there is plenty of parking on the street. The bartender was super cool and honestly was the best part of this spot for me - she was kind and helpful! read more

Me & the boys went here last night for some brews and shuffleboard. We had an excellent time. The vibe was nice and the service, top notch. I want to highlight Lincoln for being the man! He took great care of us. Solid dude. read more

This is a cool bar and music venue that sometimes hosts live music outside; the night I went to support a band play outside and it was super fun, great crowd, it was cool that they played in the parking lot of the venue so you could chill by picnic tables outside the bar and also go inside for less noise if wanted, There was also a food vendor outside and I got nachos to share which were really good! read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Nice chill brewery with friendly people and decent beers. The last time I was here it was still Timeless Pints, which I used to frequent when I worked in the area. The decor had changed, but the place still felt familiar. It was very mellow on a Wednesday evening, which was fine with us. We were there to meet up with a friend and I decided on a flight, as I always do when visiting a brewery for the first time. I got: 562 hazy Golden Lighthfoot Golden Ale Latch hook Jesus American lager Jerk lessons west coast ipa The hazy was quite good and my favorite, and the rest were fine, if not totally memorable. Hubby: smells like friendship Amber lager (seemed a little more bitter than expected) No food truck on this night. With so many good breweries in town I can't say this is a destination-type place for us, but If someone wanted to meet here again I'd have no problems coming back. read more

This is a difficult review to write. Mostly because, I loved Timeless Pints, the brewery that Syncopated purchased and sent TP owners Chris and Mary into retirement (hoping? Hi C and M, hope you are well!). As a loyal TP fan, a TP fanboy?... I wanted to NOT love Syncopated, the place that took MY PLACE away. My "Cheers". Freaking Stacy! How can I POSSIBLY like the space WITHOUT her??? Except: the beer, the ambiance, the patronage, the food at Syncopated. All five stars. As a beer drinker, the variety rates 5/5. As a dark beer aficionado, Syncopated is as good as it gets in LBC. 'Coffee Pants' is extraordinary. Coffee and vanilla notes and smooth as H-E-double hockey sticks, at 7.3% - as close to a perfect coffee porter as you'll find in Long Beach. Or So Cal. Or Anywhere. In the mood for a less dark but strong brew? Go Five 6.2 Hazy IPA (yes, 6.2%) or Jerk Lessons West Coast IPA (6.7%). Both very good. Food: Sync doesn't make their own, but they do invite food trucks regularly and there are lots of delivery options nearby which they welcome. Recommend Me-N-Ed's pizza, just expect a 45-60 minute wait. Order when you get there. Overall... I was not looking forward to writing this, but I was compelled (by Coffee Pants?) to do so. Try Syncopated. They will not disapoint. read more

Met friends here on a Friday around 5:00. It wasn't very busy at that time , and the server was supper attentive and friendly. The beers are good and there was a pop up food vender selling delicious street tacos. Later there was live music that was very good. I hadn't been to this location since it was Timeless Pints a while back. I'll definitely return soon to Syncopated Brewing soon! read more

This brewery is not associated with the previous brewery! The head brewer has the same name as the old brewer, but don't let that mislead you. It's worth checking out! They have a nice crowd of people that come in for bingo and are testing out some other events to get people in the door. Customer service was great. Don't skip on this place. I enjoyed the ""Heading for the light " which is a dry hopped dry blond. It has a nice aroma and subtle sweetness that really compliments the style of beer. I also enjoyed their brown ales read more

Been coming here since their soft opening and thought I already left a review! Syncopated took over the old location of Timeless Pints on the border of LB and Lakewood over by the airport. It's tucked away in an industrial center, like most breweries, and has a decent amount of parking. You'll often find a food truck parked and lots of outdoor seating and a well-ventilated indoor tasting area. Chris, formerly of Ballast Point, is the mastermind brewer behind Syncopated. He was able to pair his passion with Jason of Dutch's Brewhouse, and a winner was born. There is a large draft selection and a variety of beer to please all palates. If you're lucky, you can also catch their sponsored ice hockey team, The Shredders, over at Lakewood Ice. Cheers! read more

Very, very kind service. I think the beers taste great! An average brewery size, small with a little porch area. Indoor decor is super cool! Had the Sailor's Legs (strong), Coffeemaker (a little lighter), and Brown Ale. All very good stouts and dark beers! Parking is limited. read more

My first visit to Syncopated Brewing was for the 2024 Brewery Relay hosted by Downtown Runners LB. The race took us to different breweries in Long Beach with the ultimate finish line at Syncopated. There was an amazing DJ, a food truck, sponsor booths... it was a high-energy atmosphere and a LOT of fun! I saw that the brewery hosted a comedy night on the third Friday of every month, so invited two friends to check it out with me. I was hoping for a livelier crowd, but there were about a dozen of us there for the show. The comedians were good and had us laughing. I'm not a big beer drinker, but I enjoyed a very crisp and refreshing Lakewood Lemonade (wheat beer, 4.8% ABV). I would definitely order it again! I really like the open outdoor space of this brewery + easy parking. I hope there are more people there on my next visit. read more

First time visit, odd location but great cold beer, friendly atmosphere. Occasional Fridays nights they have a band playing great rock n roll oldies. read more

They had a couple nice beers. I like stouts and they had a good one. A bit noisy cuz it's at the end of the LB Airport runway. And 3rd Sundays, they typically have Pickleball and Pints event. That's why I went!! read more

Great beer. Great service. Love the atmosphere here local vibe. Dog and family friendly. Food trucks, live music on most weekends. Great place to bring the whole family to enjoy a delicious cold one. Brewer is very talented, knowledgeable, and makes amazing beer to be enjoyed over and over again. Take your beer to go with a crawler 32oz can or bring your own growler to fill. Beer ready to enjoy at home. Come on in and check it out for yourself. I highly recommend Syncopated. read more

We live close to Syncopated Brewing, so we walked the dogs over Friday night. They are dog & child friendly. They had a few outside tables set-up for a small band and some people had their own camp chairs. Benders Food Truck was also there. Great relaxing way to spend an evening. Nice selection of beer - we had a good ha y IPA & a pale ale. (There seemed to be plenty of street parking if you didn't walk.) read more

Last night 12/8/23 Stopped by for a few beers and hear a live band. 3 of us in our party woke up the next day nauseous and bad stomach ache. All 3 of us drank "The golden light foot " Something is definitely wrong with that batch of beer. Waste of money and a weekend on the couch recovering feeling like crap, will never go back. Thanks for the great time.. read more

Love a craft brewery that stays true to the brews. I enjoyed the Golden Lightfoot and my husband enjoyed the Nothing but Time. Clean space, friendly people, delicious smelling popcorn and variety of beers to choose for a fair price in So Cal. Helpful signage literally pointing us the way for our first time visit.We will be back when we visit again. Cheers! read more

Ambiance was great here! There was a band playing outside which was cool. This is a more kid friendly type of spot! There was also a table outside with food vendor. I don't know if this is the norm or it was for Halloween weekend. So what I tried was some beer and it was ok. Not sure if I'm going back. read more

Nice and chill vibe! Good beer selection and cool staff. Like any brewery parking is a little tricky but ok.

What a great stop while waiting for our flight out of Long Beach. An amazing selection of beers (not just IPAs) and the gal that helped us was one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had. Made us feel right at home even though we were just passing through! read more

We checked out this newer brewery that took over for another we had visited and the results were about the same. We tried the following: Pre-occupied Ale honey wheat w/oranges (very good) When Jimmy Hands You Lemons wheat w/lemons (good) Nothing but Time brown ale (fair) Golden Lightfoot German style golden ale (good) Sunnyvale Amber Ale (very Good) Wake-up Sleepyhead dry stout w/lactose and coffee (very good) Goin up Yonder American pale (great) Fight Like a Girl saison w/pink peppercorn, lavender and hibiscus (great) The saison and the pale were at the top of our list but the others were a bit disappointing. The servers were both very nice. read more

Loved my two visits to syncopated! First time it was a chill early Saturday with no music or food yet (it was too early for it).. but my husband, baby and I felt very comfortable with the customer service and the beer selections. The person at the bar top also offered us some popcorn to snack on which was amazing. Second time we came was for memorial weekend and it was much busier with live music and BBQ. We weren't a fan of the BBQ sold but loved the atmosphere of the brewery and the crowd. This is becoming our favorite spot. read more

Food has a various choices. The food was tasty and reasonable. The service was excellent, friendly, always carry a smile. The place is uniquely decorated to the taste of the owner. I love the display of the speakers. I wish the speakers were all operable. read more

Loved coming here when it was Timeless Pints, and Syncopated has the same friendly feel and some of the same great people. Very welcoming for the entire family and the beer is delicious! Always a great experience! read more

Out of the ashes of another brewery killed by COVID-19 comes the new Syncopated Brewing. The beers are delicious, and their space is accommodating and open. The beer was super tasty, and they have quite a large & diverse selection of options. I love that they offer 2-ounce tasters for a buck each. Fir my first visit there, I had eight of those small tasters plus a pint of their Simcoe pale ale. I'll definitely be back. read more

What an awesome brewery with such a relaxed feel! We love that there is something for everyone. From sours to IPAs to stouts. Everything that we have tried has been really good quality beer. My favorite by far is the STP tart pale ale, but there hasn't been anything that we didn't love. They have food on location occasionally, but you can also order from Dutches. It has a nice neighborhood brewery feel even though it's in the middle of a bunch of warehouses and offices. The great beerista remembers us and really makes is feel welcome. This will be a brewery that we consistently keep coming back to. Cheers everyone! read more

Great beer. Owners are awesome and friendly. Definitely a good spot to swing by and hang out after work. It's an amazing thing to see the community around this group. I've been sitting here for an hour and some, the amount of "first name basis" chatting and fist bumps is beautiful. The place is packed on their opening night and it's nothing but smiles under the masks. read more

Such a great brewery. Went on a Friday afternoon for some after work beers. They had a bbq stand outside with some yummy steak nachos. And the bartender was super nice let us taste different beers. I'm not a huge fan of sours but they had a new flavor I thought to try and it's the best sour beer I've ever had. read more
