In this episode, we’ve gone far too long drinking beer without fruit in it that, well, Gary started to feel ill. So, we’re back with two specials beers we picked up from the The Bottle Shoppe in Sylmar – a margarita inspired gose from Moonraker Brewing, and a fruited citrus sour from Dustbowl Brewing.
This is episode, we’re kinda tired of drinking hazy IPAs and fruited beers ????. This time, we just wanted to drink beer that tastes like BEER.
Welcome to the first episode of Ranked, our new podcast where we put together our top 10 rankings for every aspect of the Los Angeles beer scene. With over 300 breweries, beer bars, and craft beer stores in Los Angeles, we felt it’s time for us to give you guys some insight into where our personal preferences lie.
In this first episode, we dive into the Downtown Los Angeles beer scene, walking you through the spots that we personally prioritize when visiting the area or when recommending to our family and friends.
Here’s our quick list, but listen in to the podcast below (or search Hopped LA on your podcast player of choice) to get the nitty gritty details on WHY we ranked the way we did.

By no means is this a comprehensive list. There are plenty of other places worth visiting and talking about. So we want to hear from you. What is YOUR top 10 list for craft beer in Downtown Los Angeles?
In this episode, we’e cracking open two Los Angeles Dodgers-themed beers by one of our favorites – Arrow Lodge Brewing. We’ve got Belli Bomb IPA and the beer formerly known as Clayton Kerhop, Hush Money hazy DIPA. Two very different beers, but both pretty damn good in their own right. Throw these back for the boys in blue!
In this episode, we trying Sandbox Brewing for the first time thanks to our buddy & design partner Ron from Craftin CA. Located in Montclair, CA just outside of LA County, Sandbox is a small operation that is been busy pumping out beer after beer hitting on all the trendy styles from hazy IPAs to fruited sours.
