Great beer and good size outdoor area with lots of seating. There’s a resident orange cat that hangs out which is super fun! Had a good truck outside and when we went, it was a pizza truck, looks like they have one all the time.
I survived the pandemic thanks to Monkish. Scoring brews every morning via IG was quite the challenge but so worth the struggle. Now that their brewery is fully reopened, I always make it a point to stop in when I'm in the area.
Been coming here since they opened and have yet to be disappointed. Their nelson sauvin beers are my fav, but galaxy, citra, and double-hopped IPA's are amazing too.
You can order drinks by the glass, cans to-go for select brews, along with 64oz / 2L growlers ($10 each) which can be refilled for some post-party enjoyment. They refill growlers from other breweries for a fee, which I thought was pretty cool since most breweries in the area don't do this.
The line to order beers can get long sometimes so I often check out their website / IG for their latest offerings beforehand and double-fist each time I order. Saves a lot of time, especially if it's a busy night or you're with a big group.
They often have food trucks on the weekends but, again, lines can get long so we usually split the group up - one for food orders, one for beer to make the most of things.
The outdoor seating area is nice during the day but can get chilly late afternoon during the fall / winter so layer up. Summer nights are perfect outside. Limited seating indoors as well, which has since fully reopened as of March 2022.
Located on the southwest corner of Del Amo and S Western Ave, if you're heading south on Western, the entrance is immediately after the Fantastic Cafe. Kinda hard to see the entrance so drive slowly, plenty of parking in dedicated lot.
Smog City and The Dudes are a few other breweries very close by that are worth checking out as well if you're looking to do a pub crawl. Cheers 🍻
Monkish brewery make best Hazy IPAs
Every beer was so juicy and didn't sweet.
Some breweries's hazy IPA are good but sometimes so sweet to me.. i can't even drink all without foods.
Anyway they only have beers not foods.
You should order foods or check food truck information
Excellent beers, chill ambiance, friendly and helpful staff who answered my questions and helped me pick out beers to go. Not cheap, but the quality is there. Very tasty low alcohol beers, which was perfect for me. Lovely patio.

Wow. This place makes some great hazy IPA. I'm putting them in the same upper echelon as Fieldwork Brewing in Berkeley, California... And a notch above Modern Times in San Diego.
Hazy unfiltered IPA were spectacular. I was disappointed that I couldn't stay longer.
But next time I am in Southern California, will make a point to come back again!
I really enjoyed it with the chill and kids friendly environment.they didn't have any designated child's corner to play while the grown ups can fully enjoy a good beer especially when I visit them it was a perfect day.luckily everyone there was enjoying watching our son play with the brewery guard pet a Really laid back orange Kitty cat that actually loves being played with by my toddler. Never did it his or attempt to scratch him so I give it an ( A+ ) along with a fat 🤙 to all the hard workers there! Keep up the good work fellers..
This brewery is incredible. They are constantly putting out new brews and their dry hopped beers are out of this world. In my opinion, this is the best place for dry hopped beers in the LA area.
The outdoor patio is a great place for relaxing and meeting up with people.
This place had great service and friendly staff, not to mention awesome brews!
